Tanto?

Regarding thumb ramp placement, the filipino grip requires extending the thumb further than a sabre grip.
I try to incorporate various grip styles & hand sizes into the design profile.
I will send both blade patterns to John.
Observations are appreciated, thanks.

Well if John has or will have both patterns, I believe I know what I going to order next.
 
Due to a forum preference for a more japanese traditional style katana-like / tanto shape, I redrew the Shinshi [gent's knife]. Hope it meets your approval, feedback appreciated.

I should have funds in January so I’m very excited to see what will be in the sale!
 
John, a few years ago you made me a really cool Americanized Tanto--based off the Benchmade Stryker 910 model. Thank-you for your work. I am really enjoying that knife.
