(Since the boot dagger comments are strewn all over the place, here's a thread to consolidate the discussion...)
The Boot Dagger seems like Nathan just came up with a resourceful use of some scrap falloff of a larger knife blank.
Now, most knife makers with a useful chunk of scrap on their hands would throw an edge on one part and contour the handle a little bit, drill a few holes, slap on scales and, "Voila! Neck knife!"
But Nathan ain't "most makers", is he?
I bet this will be the most thought out boot knife, with actual, purposeful design features, handle ergo's, and blade geometry the likes of which have never been seen in a boot knife before. This thing's gonna be good!
I'll just say this now - this thread is useless without photos (Looking at you, Nathan
)
