Hanson Ozark Hunter

Don, I haven't seen many (if any) knives from you with handles sculpted in that fashion. Am I correct to say theres few of them?

If my question is confusing, im refering to making it ergonomic rather then straight or just curved.

EDIT: Should have looked through my photos before posting. I found a few with a similar contoured handle. I think Joe might even own one..?

Jon, here is an early small bowie of Don's with a contoured walnut handle:

I failed to mention how ultra-sharp Don was able to get this 1086M steel edge on the Ozark hunter. May be the sharpest Hanson I have. :eek: It passes the Al Dippold cigarette paper test with flying colors.
