Very nice, clean work. :thumbup:
One of those knives that makes me want to pick it up and cut stuff with it...and I bet it does that job very well.

Really clean construction, nice handle sculpting. I'm not a fan of recurve blades on hunters however that's just
personal preference.

Love it, John.
Will you be at Mystic again this spring?

An exceptional build my friend...

I have come back a few times to look at this knife and sheath, it is well done and very appealing. It looks like it would be easy to handle and an advantage to work with. An effective tool for sure!

Nice work!

This may seem slightly pedantic but are those two different fonts that you've used in your makers mark?

 

[john april]

yes, they are different fonts. i did not plan it that way, i sent a hand drawn idea to everstamp and thats what they came up with. i honestly never noticed until you pointed it out
