Hey guys, thanks for the nice comments. For those of you who asked for specs; I was aiming for something just under 4" and this one turned out to be 3 7/8" from tip to scales (I never measure anything that precisely unless I really have to). The blade is 1/8" thick, 1095 steel and about 1" tall at the plunge line. Talfuchre liked the collab knife that I made with Mark Wohlwend but wanted more of a spear point and less belly. I also changed the handle shape just a bit and made the overall profile just a little taller. I really like the way it turned out. Thanks!

Looks amazing Tal and Ray. Great work. I really need to sell some knives and order one of your blades. Might as well get Tal to make the sheath too :thumbup:

Yeah Thalestin, once I have it - you won't have to send the knife to me!

I like it too Ray. That is a thing I like when dealing with knife makers on this board. They do their thing - so if you give them some general outlines and let them get to work - they usually turn out something way better than you could imagine.

I just gave ray some basic things I was looking for and he knocked it out of the park. Now I need to hold up my end of the bargain and make a decent sheath for it.
