That is a very nice design, looks like it will fill the hand nicely and well balanced. Going to start saving up now because I see one of these in my future.
 
Sauk Trail, for many years a 400 mile long foot path from Detroit, Michigan to Rock Island, Illinois on the Mississippi River. Reputed to follow an ancient mastadon migration route. Now mostly blacktopped roadway. It passes only a few miles from where John and I both live. A lovely looking knife!

In the mid 1830's they started Detroit to Chicago stagecoach run that followed a good part of this original trail.

And yes, it's a lovely knife!

I want to second this post... And I love the shape of the blade as well
