I like the middle bottom one too! How long is it? What kind of steel are you using? Larry

i am using circular saw blades
master mechanic around 6 bucks at the local hardware.
the total length on the middle one is 7 1/2
the blade is 3" the scales are good ol
norway pine with a deer antler laminated
that was the first knife i made
the blade was flame hardened
and is very sharp
