More to it than I thought. I do see the Kephart as more of a GP woods design and the points you mention are making me understand why. Funny, I use some knives for some things and don't understand exactly why but what you're saying makes sense. I THOUGHT I would like a little belly in a Kephart but am not willing to compromise on other feature that it would affect.

Don't mess with YOUR Kephart design:eek: I am looking forward to mine with much eagerness. I think the belly works on the two knives I showed because they are short in length and an inch tall.

Bear,
That Nessmuk looks like a Nessmuk/Kephart hybrid with the straight belly.
Nice pair of knives!

I think Jeff H has the Mini-Kephart. The ML small kephart has a smaller handle and blade.

I would like to see a full sized handle with a small Kephart blade.

There are only a few guys doing Kepharts now. Gossman Knives, JK Knives, ML Knives and Crumpsforge.
