Man! That is slick!!
That has some fantastic floooooooooowwwwwwwwwwwww to it.

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.

I'm with you Frank.  I might call it more of an upturned skinner, but whatever you call it...it's a winner.  Doesn't matter if they give you a prize for it or not.  Very cool!

Looks very comfortable to use too.  

Well done.

Are you going to do a braided leather or some of that cool frontier leather work you do for the lanyard hole and scabbard?
chiger,
