I've mentioned before how much I like this knife. Outstanding!

 

[Robert Hankins]

Damn sweet, love the clean lines especially with Ironwood!

 

[Brett Gatlin]

Thanks, I'm glad ya'll enjoyed it.

Bigbore.....The tang is hidden and extends nearly all the way to the butt. The handles are mortised, then dovetailed prior to bonding. A very strong handle in itself, but I still felt a need for some pins. I used 1/16" pins as I felt that anything larger would break up the lines of the knife.

Take care, Brett
