Nice bird and trout blade! You could chop fish heads off at depth and whack flushing birds out of the air! And do it in style cuz you're holding a beautiful blade..

Beautiful work. I had to scroll down twice to get to the bottom of it.  I really like the forward position of the scales - up real close to the finger guard.

Really like this one, Lin. I'm willing to bet that's a great chopper. Very cool.

This is really an exceptional knife. Although much different than your fancy bowies. It really speaks to me for some reason

Great eye for design as always Lin.

Brute is a good description, when does it stop being a knife & become a short sword.

Sweet.
Can I borrow it?
When the last deer disappears into the morning mist,
When the last elk vanishes from the hills,
When the last buffalo falls on the plains,
I will hunt mice for I am a hunter and I must have my freedom.
