So here was one of my first three knives I ever did. The customer bought it and sent it back a few months later so I could make the tip pointier and thin the scales at the front. Thought I would take some pics of his new knife! I flattened out the edge so there isn't as much belly which made a much more pointy tip. I think it looks much better now, obviously I have improved over the months after making many more knives since this one. This was the initial Bushcrafter model that I had in my mind before I actually started making them. What ya think Stumpbuster?

Not sure what Stumpbuster thinks, but I think it looks awesome.
 
(Hmmn, I think Stumpbuster should reject it, let KFU keep it & want a new one, and let Warrior & I do a personal evaluation so we can "advise" KFU so as to eliminate any errors on future knives" . . . . ;) ) . . . . .
Chris, that knife is one of your best "streamlined" designs you have made, and your re-point on the blade looks even better. Great scales and I really like how the blade "finish" turned out . . . .
Excellent job . . . .
Be safe.
p.s.: "Warrior, be sure and p/m KFU your address so we can start our "evaluation" as soon as possible" . . . . . :thumbup: :)

I was looking for that pic and it was deleted off my computer! It does look much better now! The scales, pointier tip, more narrow blade. I think you will like it!
