I had one of my Mini Drop Point XL's traced out on a piece of Elmax powdered stainless a while back and noticed there was a lot of wasted steel on this particular piece of bar stock, so I made some changes to the profile to use more of the steel and I ended up with what is more like a mini fighter instead of my usual drop point. It turned out nice and stabby with a blade about 1/2" longer than normal and a bit more handle length for a solid grip.

This one will be going to the OKCA show with me in April.

Thanks for looking, comments welcome

Nice! I always like your handle shapes, and choice of liner colors to contrast.
 
Nice Jonny. I like the butt of the handle and the blade shape on this one.

Bring something for me to stab with it. :)
 
Very cool Jonny, the extra blade length is very complimentary to that design.
 
Sweet knife Jonny. Look forward to handling it at the show.
 
Thanks guys! I want to make more of these, I like how it turned out.

Ryan.....you do not get to touch this one. I have a few set aside that you are allowed to touch, this isn't one of 'em!! :D:p
 
Oh man, please do make more! I will buy one, for sure! I like Elmax a lot so far(only have one blade in this steel, but I think it has the potential to be my favorite), & I loooooooove this design! Seriously, this knife looks almost perfect to my eyes, meaning I like it as much as I ever have liked a knife without handling one in person! I will for sure be at that show (I live in Portland), will this one be available? Great work, as always!
 
Nice.. beautiful grinds.. I like the differential open pin hole sizing- larger one at the butt for a good lanyard if need be.
 
Dude that is a great looking knife, if you make more I would be interested, that has edc potential.
 
Wow, thank you very much all. Based on the response I got from this blade I've decided to do a run of them. Won't be for a while though since I still have my hands full with my current order commitments. Keep an eye out for a batch in the future:thumbup:

I appreciate all the feedback!
 
And now...this bad boy hangs around my neck. Jonny...you make some gorgeous knives and I'm glad I jumped at this one. It is one sweet cuttin' stabbin' fightin' carving defending blade :D
