I'm at the point. I don't want anything flashy. Gold eatching silver. I just want a knife that is razor sharp and stays that way for awhile...I've even thought about getting disposable surgical blades and calling it a day.Maybe in a few more years I'll get in to the etching of knives and all..

good looking knife. I could put a stag handle on it and call it custom made.  I like the looks but would prefer a little smaller version to pack in the woods. It looks somewhat lightweight though. If I were getting a custom made knife I would use something like this for a pattern. |

10-4 on that... If you sharper the top side from the point back an inch or so the knife will enter like a real hot knife in butter. I have been using mine for over 30 years and I only sharpened it twice, when I first got it and then once later. I have cut 2 inch saplings with mine before. Don't abuse it any more because it has sentimental value... |

If I were getting a custom made knife I would use something like this for a pattern. That is the knife I carry. Heavy? Not even close. I carry mule tape in my pocket and that knife I don't need anything else. Maybe a dog lead or two over my shoulder. |

As long as you can slide the blade in the arm pit they will die i use a yellow handle case for every thing killing and skinning and cutting hay string works for me.
