My friend has only seen the pictures, but he's very excited. It has some very minor scratches from the handle shaping and sheath making that I want to get out before I send it to him, so another week or so before he gets to hold it.what does he think?
Hey Paul,
You make good points. I was originally going to bring the edge all the way back, but I decided I wanted to move the cutting edge away from the front finger a bit. The blade is long enough that I wasn't worried about losing cutting edge length. I envision most of the cutting happening in the last 3". I looked at a lot of choppers on google and liked the look of that huge choil/finger groove.
It feels good from a control perspective in a choked up grip, but probably isn't great for extended use that way.

Erik,
That turned out really nice brother! I know this blade has been a long time coming and it looks to be worth the wait. Great finished product.
Very clean!
