The idea for this one is based on a couple of Rambo4 style knives I did recently. Here is a sweet chopper in 1/4in 5160 with a nice hamon(please excuse my oily smudges). Blade is 11 1/2in long and it is 17 7/8overall. Scales are black G10 with stainless screws. This is a biggun for sure but actually feels lively in the hand. Pretty sure the full flat grinds helped that out a bit :) Price is $275***SOLD*** shipped in CONUS for the chopper. Add $40 for a Kydex sheath with Tek Lok if you so desire.

Probably not making any more for prospecting but the design is there for future orders :) I have a few more designs using this blade shape I want to try whenever I get around to em. I swear that Rambo movie has started a streak in me comparable to a crack addict with a 20 pound rock! :) Guess it's just the kid in me always wanting the movie knives :)
 
i"m surprised this thing is still here! if i get back in a few hours and nobody takes it i may have to pull out my damn wallet! please someone help me........
 
DAMN Bill! That is what I am looking for. Little larger though......5/16ths Full flat grind, 2" height....

Outstanding work as always!
 
whew, that was close!! Resisted pulling the trigger all day - I agree w/Gravelface, making it into an even bigger short sword would truly be irresistable. 14"-16" blade & I wouldn't be able to help myself!
 
sweet chopper. Why am I having visions of a post apocalyptic kitchen with me dealing death death to all kinds of vegetables and fruits (not to mention chopping meat). I really would use that one in the kitchen too!

Yeah, same here! Where do i sign up?!? It's great to hear that you are hot on this blade-style right now -- I have been obsessing with the general design ever since Burt Foster used one like that in last year's Blade Cutting Competition and missed 1st place by a hair (literally)...

"Outstanding work as always!"

Yep. As always. You bad, Bill Siegle!
