Looks good bro. I actually drew out a couple Campers the other night and one looks pretty similar without the recurve.

And the problem is?????:D:p.

Cool design, I prefer w/ out the re-curve(just pers pref). Make sure to round that rear corner, keep, it just round it. Ugghhh....you have no idea how many times I had to edit this....(drunk)...(hiccup).

no doubt a big double pointy "butt" wouldnt feel good in the hand lmao
 
BA, being a week-end knife warrior & rookie newb on knives, I think I would have a better chance of keeping that knife sharp without the recurve. But that 5"+ blade is looking real tempting. How wide are you planning the blade to be ???
Good looking design, hope you don't start running out of pages in your portfolio binder . . . . :)
Be safe & Merry Christmas.
 
Bill, as far as the "recurve" goes, and speaking only for myself, I would like a straight edge and not a recurve. I'm lovin' the longer blades that your offering. :thumbup:
 
Please: no recurve....next to :eek: 'tanto' :thumbdn: : 'recurve' is my least favorite blade shape! :grumpy:

Which is why I refused to buy Zero Tolerance until they collaborated with Rick Hinderer, and those ain't recurves!

But totally agree with the Big Butt.
 
Looks good to me but I personally prefer a longer
blade for a Camp Knife, 7 to 8 inches is perfect for me.
 
That is going to be an awesome camp knife:D:thumbup:, did you decide to go with a straight edge or have you just not gotten to the recurve yet?
 
I went straight thats what everyone prefered ,but knowing me there will be a recurve model aswell, thats my favorite the recurve
 
(Re)Curves & big butts = sexy!

The straight blade looks good too though.:roll eyes: :D
 
Definitely the proto. I think maybe a slight recurve during grindoing and sharpening sharpening would be nice, but im part of the O.A.U.A.R society, owners and users against recurves :D so the deep recurve would be a turn off. BTW i like big butts and i cannot lie, yo other brothers cant deny....
