    Nailed the geometry on this one 10 thou behind the edge, silly sharp.

    Very nice!
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    Svord drop point hunter, xmas gift from my wife. Bloody sharp. Has held its edge over the course of two years hunting so not bad!

    Want a custom though! @madjon_

    That's really nice John, been working with g10 a bit lately, tough stuff but it sure stinks when you grind it!

    A little bit weighty for a hunting knife, but kinda nice and holds a wicked edge....

    A while ago I got a new knife (top one) but I decided I wanted something bigger and a bit different.
    Had this made for me by the same guy who made the top knife. Is a copy of a Sami Knife ( I guess kind of a utility knife) and its the bigger of the 2 knives they generally carried.
    It sure is a big knife (.223 for scale), neither are stainless but that suits me fine
