Wingnut,

I checked the site and it looks good.  One problem.  The text explaining the sandwhiched steel blades covers the intro text on the home page.

Nice job.

I carry a variety of knives depending on what I'm hunting and where.  The knife that always is in the pack though is the:

Hellefisk - $60.00

Cork handle.  Sandvik 12C27 stainless steel blade.  The floating fish knife, also great for the fanny pack when hunting critters that you'll need to bone out before packing out of the back country.  It's so lightweight you won't even know that you're carrying it.

It holds a great edge and is very light weight. It will be in all of our packs on our Alaska Moose hunt next September.

They are my favorite knife. I hunted for a great knife for years. Helle knives are the best blades I have seen so far. I have the Harding model. I skinned and broke down two elk with it before I could even tell it was not as sharp as when I started.Gary

Any idea which would be best for a horizontal all around knife, but mostly skinning/quartering for backpack hunts?

I want to make a few for my dad and I, but I prefer a horizontal carrying knife if a fixed blade.  Otherwise I usually carry a folder.

thanks, always thought a Helle horizontal carry would be great.

I'd get a Helle, and have someone like Steve Catts make you a sheath.  Lots of talented leather crafters around here....

If you are building a horizontal carry knife it's about blade length and shape.  Look through the webpage and the specs and figure what you want.  Then build them and the sheaths.  Your good too go.

Length - 6 6/8 inches (169mm)
Blade - 2 7/8 inches (72mm)
Handle - 3 7/8 inches (97mm)
Weight - 2.2 oz.
