Nice and clean little knife Ben. Great lines. I like everything about it.
 
Nice clean lines and finish on a simple, well designed utility hunter. At least as good for deer, etc, as birds and trout. And a really fine "bonus" sheath".
 
I came to see the tapered tang.....;)

Nice looking work
 
Thanks, guys! I'll try to get a tang shot posted tomorrow...
 
Here's the tang shot for those who wanted it;)

Very well done. A tapered tang really adds IMO, especially one executed as well as this.
I do like a little narrower or more slender blade on a Bird & Trout.
