Everything is on point.
Handle, blade shape, sheath.
It looks like it feels nice and balanced.

I keep saying I'm done sculpting the handle.
I'm a lier.
I've been called Worse.....Ha!

Now..... I think I'm ready for clean up, and sharpening.










Handle speckles.....Vintage, "Creamy Oatmeal "

Great job...........

I feel like adding a Cold Steel Black Bear Classic to the mix. Maybe a leather handle Kabar Big Brother.

Just picked up my new custom sheath for the Fällkniven S1x.

Man, I must be in the minority. I had a bunch of 5” blades and sold em all off. All I have left are 3”-4” and 6”+. 5” seems to be right in a midrange grey area for me.

If I need something small for the day I pack a small blade. If I go bigger than that, might as well go BIG.

Basically, if I’m gonna bother with 5”, might as well go 6”+.

5" is the proverbial do it all, " jack of all trades master of none". Why many "survival knives" are circa 5", and why many people make do with a 5" petty knife in the kitchen.

I don't think I have many 5" blades?
I tend to go bigger.

I'll try to do a general census, counting the ones close to 5"

3.6 to 6.25 inch blades - 5 inch seems to be the perfect size for my uses. Users pile

I'm with you on the size of knives. I find 5" knives either too big or not big enough. Your not alone in this. Maybe it's just the two of us that think this way. Great knives by the way. Thanks for sharing.
