Here's a hunter I just finished. It's 1095 with a 5" blade and 5" handle in Rosewood with stainless hardware. Let me know what you think.









 
Nice knife Michael. Looks like the perfect size for field use. I wonder if that pin should come forward a little closer to the guard? You might want to chamfer the end of the handle to make it a little more comfortable when gripping the knife overhand. Just a couple ideas. Keep up the good work man.

Thanks Dave Thats the kind of feedback I'm looking for. This is the the third hidden tang that I have made. There is a lot of work that goes in the handle that I never realized.
 
Lovely looking knife, looks functional as well! Sheath looks great as well! Do you make them by hand? It's a shame you are keeping it for your collection, I'm sure someone would have loved to have that knife!
 
Hey mate, great looking knife I agree with the early post about pin placement, also IMHO, the sheath would be improved 300 percent if you made the belt loop fold so the nice "shiny" side was facing the handle slab. Easy enough to do and will change the look,,,,,,,if that is what you are after. Great knife.
