For sale today is one Fiddleback Boot Knife. SOLD. This one is wearing natural Canvas Micarta. The specs are: 3.5" blade, 7" OAL, or 7 3/8" OAL. Its convex ground from 1/8" thick 01 steel.

I have a JRE belt sheath to fit it that I charge $15 for.

I know it's designed as a boot knife but it looks like it would be an amazing woods blade too. Really like this one.
 
Agreed!

I paddle a kayak to transport myself on the rivers to fish. I have picked a couple of small sheath blades to carry with me. One was a neck knife but the handle is just a wee bit too small at 3". I have another that has a belt sheath with a 4" handle which is nice but the blade is at 2 1/8" and a bit small. So, I was looking for something with a 3" to 3.5" blade with a handle close the second knife (3.5" to 4"). Hopefully, this is it.

The reason I am looking for a relatively small belt sheath knife as I want it on me when I get out of the kayak and not on my PFD. Also, I wear it on the left-side for a cross draw and a larger knife would poke me or get in the way while sitting in the kayak.

Lastly, I have been wanting a Fiddleback knife since last year and I was thinking about the EDC for that job but I think this one will do.
 
Andy, can you take a couple more pics of this one before you send it on it's way. I'd love to see it straight on. Great knife!

Thanks bro! I think it will be once the handle is a bit bigger. In this configuration it almost reminds me of a modernized Sgian Dubh when its in the hand. I'll likely do some experimenting with the handle until its an excellent woods bummer.
