What would you use it for?
A fairly large knife with a deep belly like this works well as a skinner for large game. Also a nice size for a camp knife but maybe a little heavy for a kayak or canoe trip. It's one of those eye of the beholder things.
 
Knife shows quality. Dont see why it has not sold as certianly a good deal.
 
Yep, it's ridiculous that it's still here and I've given it three days--no more. :)

This one would have fit right in with the others in my G. L. Drew collection, but cash is a little tight after the holidays, and timpani saw to it that the temptation was removed. What a unique, useful and appealing design!
