Here's 4 blades I did recently. The gree micarta one is a speciial order S30V. The others are 1095. Handles are black G10, red Pakkawood, and the already mentioned green canvas micarta. I really dig the Nessmuk curves. Makes for a great little utility blade. Basically the blade is all belly without resorting to the dramatic curves of the old buffalo skinner style knives. Just thought I'd share a pic :) Let me know what ya think of em.

Great work Bill. I like that blade shape. A long time ago, before I made knives, I had someone custom make me a nesmuk style knife that had an 8 inch blade. I drew it on paper and he made it exactly the way I drew it.
 
Here's a couple more pics. Just keep in mind, I am a grinder not a photographer :) Had a heck of a time getting the green to show as green in pics!
 
The big guy is 5 1/4in of balde and 9 7/8 overall. The smaller patterns are 8 1/2 overall with 4 1/8in blades :) All of em are aproximately 1/8in thick in their respective steels.
