Yeah, vermonster13 has it about right. The one I have is 3.25" in blade lenght and the point is up swept a little more. I don't have any way to get pics right now. My daughter took her camera back to college with her. Guess I should break down and get my own. LOL

very nice blades-- I really like the shapes you come up with. Larry

Jeff...as always, reall sweet looking knives. That hollow ground at the bottom looks fantastic.

Didn't I send you some desert ironwood I had with that sheephorn? I think that would look great, with an endcap of sheep horn and a black micarta spacer on that bottom blade.

If I didn't, I intended to. As soon as I get moved I can forward it along for you. Its got all this wavy twisty black grain in an orangy-brown background...very sweet stuff.

Vance did you ever get a broadhead on the end of your arrow, or were you hunting catch and release at the Sweat? ROTFL

I was field testing a NEW mechanical Woodsman.

Besides Curtis had confiscated all my sharp instruments after the first afternoon

That was probably a good decision. My boy thinks that you're Santa when he sees pics of you and I'd hate to have to explain that Santa can't make it this year dues to trauma from extreme blood loss from a self inflicted wound. :D

Shoot after all the antlers & horn Vance brought to the TX Sweat, I think he's Santa too

I have a few racks you can have from the last couple deer I've got that you can have Jeff. I might even have some to spare for Frank if I look.
