Your camera may suck, but the knife looks just fine. I would like to see you thin the bolster and scales a bit more. Especially to get less sharp, more rounded edges along the top and bottom of the bolster and grip. You want to make it feel smooth in the hand.

Nice Knife!

Thanks Mike! I value your opinion highly:thumbup: This knife is actually a lost project of mine that i recently resurrected. I had originally started planning for this and a few other knives back in 2006, and if my memory serves me correct you actually helped me through email with questions about stock thickness and contact wheels, etc. I plan to make a few more of these and i will take your suggestions to heart.

I always liked the little back packer. Oddly enough, I have never gotten around to making one.

On the to do list I guess!
