This isn’t a typical design I do however it does come from a few designs that have similar features that work well.

The ergonomics just designed this more than my eye.

I’m calling it the Pileated Pattern. Reminds me of a woodpecker.

Steel is 0-1 with Micarta. Sent to South Dakota today.

I see a nod to the Gayle Bradley 1 folder there .
A good purchaser if my work kept pushing me for a blade shape like this. I just couldn’t get it to work with any handle combo I was doing that felt correct. This just sort of manifested from throwing the pencil out the window and cutting blanks and letting my hand be the guide. Not what I expected to be the result.
