Here are a couple of Utes that I'll be taking to Blade. These are a new design that I will be making as a standard from now on.
Thanks for looking and would like comments on it, thanks in advance.
Specs

BL 5 1/2", 140mm. OAL 10 3/4", 275mm. Thickness at Ricasso .2170", 5.56mm
1075 Carbon. Flat ground with a convex edge. Stainless guard and spacer with black fibre. Australian Ironwood handle, domed pin. Hand tooled leather sheath.




Same specs with ebony.




Cheers Keith

Keith,
You are one of the most talented Apprentice ABS knife makers I have seen.
When do you test for JS?
Looks to me like you might be ready.
Great looking knives. I really like this design.
 
Keith, you're knockin' 'em out like a man possessed lately - they should hold this Blade thing more often, lol!

I can honestly say I like these two equally, and to choose one over the other would involve flipping a coin. I particularly like the handle profile, looks bang on the money.
