Reminds me of my old Puma White Hunter. Came out real nice and a bit more heavy duty too.

I like the looks Alot.
Next, maybe take out the thumbramp?
Give it an old school look.

Well, now. That has it's own kind of cool. Like it.

Oof, that's rough, but nice save! It's a mini-Brute. A Brute-lite. A Brutelette. A Brutelette!!

I've got a question for you folks. The BK-9 in this thread and any BK-9 and other similar designs all seem to have a point that would be nearly impossible to stab or pierce anything with. Yet other chopper knives and large heavier knives do incorporate either a drop point or a clip point. What would you call what the BK-9 has, a spear point? And, why do you favor this so much that I see many similar big and small knives that use it?

Great fix!!!! Folks! THAT is how you handle a chipped blade!!!!!!!

Very knice work!

IIRC it was Jerry Fisk who put an ever so slight (almost indiscernible) recurve in the BK5 for better performance.
