I don't know what to name it

That looks great Nick.......should be another winner for ya! The 2 I have from you feel so nice in hand, I couldn't decide which style handle I'd like better w/out trying them both side by side. I'd be willing to bet you couldn't go wrong with either style. I'm tempted to try out a new one....we'll see.
You've received some great comments already, so I can't add much more to what's already been said. I also like your new maker's mark alot..looks sharp!
Pricing is a tough call, but I think Redsnake1997 nailed it pretty good. I would think you'd find alot more potential buyers willing (or able) to spend in that $100-200 range for a nice custom. But it's not like a price is set in stone, so you can always adjust it accordingly if you feel the need to. But that's a call each & every maker has to decide for himself.
For those of you who are looking for a fixed blade, I highly recommend you check out one of Nick's models. His work is outstanding & he's great guy to deal with. Trust me, you won't be disappointed.
I'm thinking of a name for this one Nick......nothing yet though. I'll report back if I come up with something. Good luck with it!
SpearZ....thanks again for sending the link. Wouldn't have seen it otherwise.
 
I agree with Mick57 the original handle shape is great handle and should be kept.

The new handle shape looks like a very pleasant addition to Nick's solid line up :thumbup: of very usable solid knives and sheath's :thumbup:

I was new to the 01 steel when I bought this knife. I live in a wet climate, I haven't seen rust or any sort of issue on the 01 steel, seems to be extremely tough and holds a sharp edge a very long time. All I do is clean and oil the knife once a month.
 
Looks awesome. Great dimensions, flow, and functionality. To me, that looks like a perfect all around knife. You can skin, chop, cut, whatever with it. It's the kind of knife I could see carrying all the time when in the woods.

Nick,
I like it alot. I really like your pinwork, pleasingly simple. I would be a little bit concerned with the lack of pin near the ricasso. I think it would be reassuring to know that there was a least a hidden pin there. It would not take away from your existing pinwork either. On price I think closer to $200. Both of these are just my opinion, and we all know about opinions.....:D

Thanks for the kind responses guys. I think I am going to go with what my brother came up with and call it the "Scout" I really do appreciate all of the help you guys have offered with naming this knife. I will be finishing up the sheath this weekend and will probably be posting it in the for sale forum.

Thanks again
Nick:)
