Hello all,

I recently purchased the lot of knives featured in the picture so that I could put my own handles on them. The bottom one's shape has me at a bit of a loss. If someone knows the name for this shape and/or could point me in the direction of handled examples that would be fantastic!

Thanks,
CT

The bottom one is a drop point shape, and the tang is a partial rat tail. You could put any handle shape on it you like. It looks to be a strong rat tail, since the top half is almost full width. Is that alabama dama or someone else?

Thanks for the info! Just to be painfully explicit, the handle is intended to cover most of the 1.5inch transition between blade and tang? So option1 as opposed to 2 or 3. I bought these and a couple others off of ebay, thejayger.

Thanks again for the help!
