Hunting Knives

That is one nice looking and usefully designed knife Manny. The handle should be at least as long and the blade in my view and I have always done better work with a drop point in skinning and breaking down a carcass. I like it very much! MD

mdeland,

Thanks. I had him make the handle longer than his stock design for the reasons you mention. So far it has 1/2 a bison bull (I had help) 2 elk, 3 mule deer, and a truck load of wild hogs under it's belt. A few swipes with a steel and it is good to go again.

If anyone makes his own knives and wants some nice wood for the scales,.........check out this web-site. This is where I got the ironwood for my pistol grip.
