That looks great! I love that handle design. I'm jealous, that thing is going to be fun to take to the woods.
 
I would say that is an excellent redition on the concept/design, with a very ergo looking handle.

It seems the 'tracker' style knives are either a love/hate thing. They get a lot of negative commentary, but they don't seem to stick around too long on exchanges (not that that in and of itself means alot)...would like to see more in-use reports.

I think if it has features you use in your style of outdoor activities, and you know how to use that blade properly, it can offer a good amount of utility, if executed well (good edge geometry, quality materials, heat treat, ergos, etc). But it would appear to be 'jack of all trades/master of none' kind of knife...which might not be a bad thing if you don't need a specific style knife (say a fine fillet blade). Out in the woods, most of us would probably want a knife that could multi-task to some degree.

Looking forward to a field report.

Excellent work from a great maker...good score.
 
I went to Bryan specifically because he had so many great reviews and really listened to every little detail of what I wanted the knife to be. He's a great guy, I've orderd two more knives from him since this on and will order more in the not to distant future.
I'll have to bring a camera on one of my trips, I usually never do because I don't wana break it but I'll try to get you guys some action pics. Maybe I'll just mess around close to home.
 
I'm off to do a guided trip for a group of clients, we will be doing some rock climbing and summoning some peaks in the adirondacks. We are backwoods camping as we to from one climbing area to the next and doing some primitive skills and survival techniques. So I'll try to get some action pics for you guys, I'm trying to find my little video camera to get some video not just of the tracker but I want to get some videos of clients and stuff for my new webpage. So hopefully I'll find it before I leave in a little while, of not I'll have the camera and I believe I can take short videos on the camera so maybe I'll do that I'd it doesn't eat up my memory card to much. So in about a week I should have some good stuff for you guys, I'm bringing the mini laptop and the small to hook up to the net because we keep a online journal and twitter updates on all trips and let all the clients write their own little piece of the journal everyday. Sometimes the satelite hookup doesn't work very well but maybe I can post some stuff along the trip and you guys can give me some feedback on other stuff you'd like to ae the tracker doing. Well see how it goes and what everyday consists of.
 
I don't like the design of the Tops version, but Bryan's is definitely a better design. Great looking knife. :thumbup:
