I really like the idea and I've been looking for one to fit in an Altoids tin.
That's what I thought the PSK knife was for in the other thread, a tin. This would be better as it is a small knife and a spear of sorts. I would like to see more of a curved area where your finger would be as that looks pretty sharp. Plus, a small curved area would be less likely to cut through flesh in the event you did spear something. Does that make sense?
Also, maybe straighten the handle out just a little so it could be used more for a spear???
For gigging frogs and fish, I have been taking three, 3'' wood screws with an aggrestive thread and stick them through an eye screw. Then screw the eye screw into a stick, and wrap it with wire. Just make sure the head of the wood screw is large enough so it doesn't pass through the eye screw.
I now have a three prong gig for fish and frogs. The aggresive threads act as barbs and hold anything on the wood screw.
You sometimes have shim the wood screws between the threads and the stick so the wood screws are not pointing towards the center line of the stick, but pointing out, but that's no big deal once you figure out the angle. I just cut a couple small green twigs and ram them inbetween the screws and the stick and wire it down with a few wraps. Nothing to fantsy here.
I have been doing that for years and it is cheap and works great.
Now if you could possibly take some 1/8'' round stock spring steel in 5160 and thread one end and bend it at a right angle so it can screw into a stick or even make a circle to form an eye so a screw or nail can be used to hold it to a stick, and then some how hammer out a barb on the other end, and with a slight angle going away from the stick to form a wider area at the tips of the gig, and make each prong 3.5'' or so long so that they fit in a tin, that would be cool to.
