Show me your custom camp knife/chopper.

I did another American Leuku back in April. These are lots of fun. ~0.190" 1084 with a ~5" tang stuffed deep into a hickory axe handle:

I did this pair a while back, but need to redo the handles. Handles are carbon fiber/blue burlap (that I made), but they feel too slick and glassy in the hand. Little one is Elmax and the larger is 80CRV2. I will eventually redo the handles on both, probably Micarta or AmeraGrip type handles.

I did this one for a buddy of mine; forged 8670 and Camo SureTouch handles. He wanted something like the TOPS Storm Vector. Blade is 12" cutting edge and the handle will allow for up to 2 hands, too:
