Here' s my baby....goes where ever I' m hunting..
This a custom that a guy that I know makes...he is a licensed knife maker...the pic doesn' t really do it justice but I like it. It has a cocabola handle, turqouise, and some knife makers steel that I can' t remember. But man is it sharp, holds an edge and easy to resharpen to shave hair.
It has the hook on it, but he also makes them without. In fact he showed me a folder he just got through with the other day...Mammoth tusk plates...awesome!! I tried to buy it from him, but he wouldn' t sell.
Best of all, there affordable. I got this one at a discounted price, but he usually charges $135 for this knife, and I believe $225 for a folder.
I' m buying two more from him this year, one for my dad, and another for me..without the hook, and a little smaller for skinning.
