Pitdog-Inspired "Belthook"

[NoahL]

Okay, so I was bored at work today and I got to thinking about a "belthook" design I came up with sometime last year--basically it was taking a billhook and transforming it into a belt knife. Well, I was thinking about it more and I got to thinking about pitdog's wide-blade style and started playing around to see what kind of mixture I could come up with and I came up with this monstrosity:

The point of it rather reminds me of an eagle's beak, which I also rather like, but I thought that the overall design is conducive to pulling cuts against brush and tree-limbs like a billhook, but it is smaller and more knife-like. Plus I think it just looks badass.

Anyway, just thought I'd share with everyone the kinds of things that my boredom produces

Crazy. I like it but cannot think of what I would use it for.

Haha, yeah, I know the feeling--the original was much more practical and utilitarian but this one is on steroids for no apparent reason other than to amuse my boredom

It would look cool in steel, no doubt. But I am not sure what I would use it for, aside from in the garden.

Yeah, the garden was really the only place I could think of to use it (although it would trim trees and chop bamboo quite well, I would think) but it's just a steroid-injected idea--as I said, the original design I drew was a lot more practical, and this was just cool

Noah, that does look bad ass and I bet if someone made it they would sell more than one.

I have to say I have looked at this one several times. There is nothing to practical that comes to my mind for use. All I could think was a fighting knife! Put some black canvas scales on it. I think most sensible people would retreat if you pulled this and it had a 12 inch blade...lol
