Fixed blades

Nice.

Thank you. I think so, too.



*I'm waiting for a "Sam Wilson" reply...or for the "Randall" guys to burn me in effigy for actually "playing" with it.

I am waiting to see you baton it through some seasoned mesquite

Nice.

With all respect ... that 's very much an understatement...
It's super duper extremely nice

This is a streamlined, more evolved version of my first knife design. (Always) I showed a few earlier pics, but now it's closer to being finished. Just subtle little cleanup, and marking.
*Light rain in the pictures

It's my most tactical design.
In My opinion it's pretty Bad Ass. Cool.
I like it.

The transition of the scales was a really nice touch.

Couldn’t let it just rust away at the pawn shop…

I remember when those were somewhat available provided you had the funds.. early to mid 90’s - that was a grail. Bad ass knife then and now. Congrats on the pawn shop gold score ( one of the SOG made knives that CAN actually take a beating and not break ).

Definitely was.on my drool list as a teen in the late 80, early 90's... The Tom cat original too.

Nice score. My pawn shop trips reveal cheap blades that are not worth it.

Knurls are easy ...

Almost too thin and elastic for this job. Hard on the baton ... but great, great cutter. Still very sharp afterwards.

Neat pattern on the logs.
Is that from worms under the bark?

Yes. Most of our firewood looks like this, coming from bark beetle epidemics, see for instance https://cowboystatedaily.com/2022/08/10/worst-of-mountain-pine-beetle-epidemic-over-experts-say/

This has got me thinking, maybe I should release my "Splitting Maul" model. Its absolutely absurd. So absurd, in fact, that I've never even made the prototype.

Its half axe, half giant knife, 100% mental illness. Should make splitting virtually any diameter wood easy. Just don't try to carry it anywhere.
