Elk Tooth Nessmuk

[kc custom]

I don't make a lot fixed blades anymore. I ended up making this one for an elk guide. I took down some of the nessmuk hump and curve. The scales are stabilized cherry. I couldn't think of a way to inlay the tooth with out making a bezel so I just under cut it and inlaid the tooth. Steel is ATS34. I consider sheath making a necessary evil but I think hunting knives need to have them.
Comments welcome.

Ken,
I like it a lot ,I like the blade profile,and the index fingergroove,IMO,always makes for a good comfortable handle .Button snap - flap sheath ,another great feature,if you put that in a pack,the knife will never come out of the sheath if its bounced around a lot,or on the belt,it stays where it's supposed to be
Has a classic look to it as well,with the handle scales Nice Knife,Thanks for showing it

Doesn't look like a nessmuk to me, but it sure looks good.
