Looks good bro. I actually drew out a couple Campers the other night and one looks pretty similar without the recurve.
 
That has the potential of having a big butt.......:thumbup::D

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.
 
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....
