I think that this will be my go to knife this fall. The 3 3/4" blade is forged from 5160, stag grips with an overall length of 7 7/8"

Need anybody to break that in for you?
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.

Nice looking knife. Is Ron teasing us with that one or are they available for purchase?

Ron LaClair

Bill, I'm waiting for sheaths from Art Vincent of Cedar Ridge Leather Works...next week some time.

Tim, I'll let you know.

There's a well designed, no nonsense hunting knife. It's one you can pass down to your grandkids. Lin

This morning I added deerskin lanyards to a couple of the Skinners. I think they'll serve a purpose plus I like the looks.

That is a beauty, Ron - the style and look sort of reminds me of some knives made from high-quality old butcher knifes. Fits in with the Ron LaClair personna - IMO.

I kinda like the Drop-Point too.

Very nice. It's been duly added to my ever growing wish list!
