That is a beautiful knife. Clean and simple looking with brawn to go along with good looks.
I'm most impressed.

Smokepole - you are an artist - I very much enjoy viewing your knives - thanks! OH
Deep in the guts of most men is buried the involuntary response to the hunter's horn, a prickle of the nape hairs, an acceleration of the pulse, an atavistic memory of his fathers, who killed first with stone, and then with club...Robert Ruark
