    @Von Gruff Knives On that topic,I am bit of a knife nut & for years l have used a Kizlyar DV-2 ,l got as a boat/camp knife while we were living/working in Arnhem Land & PNG & used it a lot while we hunted out of Air Boats in Oz & came to like it as a camp knife able to butcher whole carcasses if needed .

    I have always liked the idea of having a similar knife & Hatchet/Axe set for my collection & using on our Jet Boat/rafting hunts.Is that something you would look at doing ,all just set up very tool like, as the DV2 gets used as basically a hatchet & butchering tool around camp used to cut poles for camp Fly's ,Batoning etc .Specs on the DV2 ,so something very similar able to take hard use, with just plain hard wearing handle/finish.

    Total length: 365 mm (14.5")
    Blade length: 235 mm (9.3")
    Blade thickness: 5.2mm
    Steel: U8
