I finished this short little bushcrafter up last spring and have been beating the tar out of it since then.  I forged it from one of my old Nicholson 4-in-1's. It's got a 3.75" blade with a mild convex grind. The size/grind don't put it in the standard bushcraft knife category, but I find it perfect for the chores I have around camp.  It's also got a tapered tang and a mild forged finger guard.  The sheath holds my favorite little fire steel/diamond stone/ceramic rod combo made by S.O.G.  The knife is pretty ugly by most standards, the grind is quite tacky, and it's got some field character, but I ain't complanin'!

Cool, nicely done. Now if only it was a mini scandi grind   :)

I think it is a very cool little knife with a pleasing profile coupled with a very functional sheath/rig.

After years of use and you retire it, that one will probably go down as your favorite.

Have a great hunting season!
