Phillip the knife on the bottom is really nice. I really like the brass guard.

Very nice!! Are you making the sheaths, also, and could you post pic's? Thanks for sharing.

Both are cool, but the lower one is really pretty. Brass guard looks nice, and I usually am not a guard fan. I like the overall blade shape and the handle looks comfy, too. Classy. I would make this a regular addition to your line, guys.

Definitely the bottom one. I really enjoy seeing something more in line with the traditional tanto blade shape rather than the American truncated tanto. Just my opinion.

Thanks for the compliments!

I too like the bottom knife. It feels so good in the hand. The pic does not show it very well but it has about 2 or more inches of serrations at the guard. They are WICKED.

I am currently working on a traditional tanto for a customer. It is going to be awesome, I hope.

I too, prefer the bottom version. The top one is nice too, but I prefer the tip style on the lower one, don't care for the acute angle style of tanto point.

Funny. Am I the only one who likes the design of the top knife better? (It just looks cooler to me.) ... Oh man. Even among knife nuts, I'm the eccentric one.

Why be normal?

 

[Crayola]

Tony S, I'd have to agree with you- you must be the eccentric one! That bottom one is great. BUT, CHISEL GRIND!!!!! No thanks. Then again, they ain't my knives now are they! Otherwise, great job

Tony S,
You are not alone. I like tantos with that tip. I just like the other kind more.
