I don't contribute a whole lot here, most of my tools are fixed blades. I figured I would give you something to look at. Hope you enjoy, feel free to ask any questions you might have.

First up is my Bark river piggy back set up. A bravo 1 and Mikro slither. I love this set up, but I currently have it up for trades on other forums.

The is my Bill Siegle bushcrafter. Its made out of 1095 steel, 4.5 inch blade, mosaic pin with a true scandi grind. I just picked this one up a couple of weeks ago. Its really a prototype as Bill was experimenting with scandi grinds.

Next up is my main camp blade made by Mike Burch. L6 steel, g10 handles, 6.75 inch blade a very nice overall woods knife.

Here is one I put together for the Mrs. as a good luck charm. Its a cougar claw with a small damacus blade and ironwood spacer.

These are a couple that I had made up for my daughters. They are John Landi MPM's, 1095 steel, custom glow micarta scales 4.5 inch blade. very cool for their first customs.

centerfinger,

Impressive display. Like them all especially that little cougar claw and the two you made for your daughters.

Thank you for sharing them.

Fixed blades are nice too! :D
Thanks for sharing!

Have you used that Siegle Bushcrafter much? How do you feel about the scandi grind?

Neat cougar claw knife!

A very nice gift for your daughters. ::nod::

Thanks for the nice comments. I have to get some lighter weight leather to make a neck sheath for the cougar claw knife, its more of a novelty than a user.

I actually just got that Siegle in trade last week and thus far I have only chopped through a 3inch oleander branch. It worked great and remained hair popping sharp afterwards. Bill makes some great blades and I haven't heard anything negative about them. I do like the fact that its a prototype and is the only one of its kind. I like scandi grinds (I have 4 scandi grind blades), but my favorite are the full convex grinds of Bark river. Maintaining a true scandi grind is kind of a PITA, but they sure cut good.
