I saw a post where Stomper was selling a nice looking hand forged Nessmuk for cheap on the "custom knife for sale thread", but by the time i had a chance to purchase the piece it was already sold to some lucky fella. Well i contacted Stomper and asked if he could make me one like it. With lightening speed he had one completed and sent to me within a week. HMMMMM if he could make one this quick maybe he can make me a larger one, so i contacted him again this time same shape but longer with some minor modifications. Iwanted it to be similar to a golok but with some of the characteristics of the Nessmuk "a Gomuk". Here are some pics:
The larger one with its 9" blade is the Gomuk next to its half brother the Nessmuk. I wanted it to have the same handle material cause i will be having a custom sheath made for them to ride next to each other, i am not sure if it will be a side by side or piggyback. I think they make a great pair together, the smaller one for skinning and making fuzz sticks and the bigger one to make wood for the fire as well as other chopping requirements. What do you guys think?
