Bob, that's wicked! I like the way the handle fills toward the little finger. Very nice knife.

Bob-

That looks like a pretty damn healthy knife to me.

I still constructively suggest that you switch to 416 SS, I think you will be very pleased with it. I used to use a lot of brass, but it never looks the same after even a week as it did when you finished it....I have SS hardware that looks exactly as it did when the knives were done.

Not being picky, just trying to help

I do like that knife though!

Evolve? It looks like you got the proportions perfect on this knife and the recurve came out great! -Guy Thomas
 
"The Beast" -- You have stolen the moniker I gave to my Kinyon style power hammer! I challenge your blade to stand up under the dies of a true BEAST(grin).
 
Sorry Bill, didn't mean to steal your "Thunder" Thats the name that strikes me for this blade. I have gotten some Emails RE: Is this for sale?

The final version of this blade will be in S/S and a totally updated sheath style.

Unfortunately is not for sale just yet. This one and my other prototypes are going to be evaluated first hand by some other makers. After they pick them apart and along with your input I will Re:Assemble them in final form. Then they will be for sale.

I have Elephant hide for skin (Been married 24 yrs) so your valuable ideas on Evolving the beast are appreciated.
Whatever you like (Or don't like) about the knives POST IT or Email me. All comments positive or otherwise are always WELCOME
