Wow....Wow.....Amazing. This makes me wish I went private sector instead of infantry. If the VA paid better I'd be all over this. Really amazing look, love the modern take on a classic look. Good luck

Excellent workmanship. Love that old-school look. Can't afford right now but I'd love to see more pics.

Thank you! This knife was very much inspired by an old ka-bar my dad gave me.

is this as chunky as it looks in the handle area? My hands are not overly huge...i wear a medium to large glove. I really dig this thing but ive spent my knife allotment for the month and im about to spend next months on this!!!! Thanks

The handle is about 1 1/8" thick on its edge and 1 3/8" on its side ill upload some picks of the knife in my hands as there about medium large.
