Recurve small fighter

I guess that is what style ya call this knife...not sure.
Anyway I seen a knife Don Hanson made and I really liked the blade profile, it was one of his tactical folders. I sketched out a design and emailed it to Don and he gave me the green light. It is by no means a carbon copy of his but wanted to check with him out of respect just in case. I also started this knife over a year ago. I profiled and roghed in the bevels, sent it to Darrin Sanders for heat treating. Then it set for a year because I had orders, finally a year later I decided to finish it.
O1 steel
Black g10
Acid etch finish on the blade





Thanks for looking. All comments welcome.

I like it and I think the more you study the knives of Don Hanson the more you will understand his sense of flow and his art. Making a good knife many people can do....making a knife with great lines is reserved for a few. Don is one of those few.
