KFU thank you so much for coming through on this man!

Now I have to figure out how to get shade on my house because all the trees ran away in terror.

Better with real pics ?

Looks good!! How does it handle??? I'll get mine done someday :) Putting that belly on it is gonna gonna be a PITA, but I think it will be worth it.

Maybe I should talk to KFU??
 
It sunk into that wood its posed in without a swing. I literally just let the nose drop and it sunk in that far.
This thing is a monster and it feels Soooo good in hand. I cant wait to get after some proper wood.
 
Glad you like it Evan, I wasn't sure how it would turn out since I have never done one that large. Like I told you, I wanted to check the heat treat so I chopped a 4x4 in half with it. Its wicked sharp and a beast in the hand. Thanks for letting me work on it for you.
 
I'm sure it looks good if Chris did the grind, but honestly, the photos aren't helping. Not trying to be an ass, just sayin'...
 
@ Warrior

You cool Dubs ..lol all I have for a camera is still my phone, so I did the best I could.
I need a new camera but there's so many other things that we need first.

It looks like if you stumbled upon a cabin in the woods, that looked like nobody had been there for a hundred years, you might find this knife in a chest wrapped in oil soaked leather beside a well loved wheel gun.
 
Thought the thread title read "Pic heavy" and not "blurry cellphone images heavy". :D

Edit:

Thanks for the improved pics! :)
