This is an older piece I had at the 2012 Little Rock show. I borrowed it from the collector last week for a pro pic...thanks Chuck. The handle is cocobolo, the blade is about 9in. 5160. I welcome y'all's comments and critiques.

Thanks Peter, my dad did the sheath... I think he does pretty good.
 
Hope you don't mind that I supplied a larger version of Chuck's photo.
This Fighter is so clean and well executed and I love nice high-figured Cocobolo.

Don't mind at all Kevin. Thanks for looking at this one again...you saw it at the LR show last year. You liked the lines and finish... said it was a good using knife. Hope to be presenting some more elaborate pieces this year... hamons, file work, etc. Thanks again, Ben
 
Yes, I did and saw it again the other night on Chuck's photosite and immediately recognized it.
And Yes, it is a good using knife as it fits and feels so good in the hand.
 
Nice seeing you post your work, Ben. I remember this one from LR. Chuck's image makes it pop. Very clean work.

Really like your work, Ben, another nice one. :thumbup:
Also dig the Moran-style handles.

Thanks y'all, that handle style is a favorite of mine. I have trouble getting away from it.
