great feedback so far, gents!
What are your thoughts regarding materials?
I started sketching last night.
About 7" overall, split equally between handle and blade.
Designed for removable scales, and a large cutout for storage. Can be scaled, wrapped, plasti dipped or raw.
There is a lanyard hole.
Planned stock thickness is up to around 3/16".
Blade is a little over an inch wide, with a dropped point and a small choil.
Flat grind.
I'm leaning toward W2, as it has good chemistry and the possibility for a temper line.

Do you like jimping?
How much belly do you like a blade to have on a knife like this?
What is there listed above that you would change?
Thanks to everyone that has participated in this portion of the GAW! We have had some great input from the few of you that looked at this thread (46)... We are still in the design phase, if you have features you would like considered now is the time to speak!
I would love to make this a limited run and get them into the hands of those that want one. Once the knife is unveiled, I will have a price and ETA for those that are interested in purchasing one, the more interest the cheaper the run!
