Recently I went on another “one knife” journey. I knew I wanted a Bolo and my first prototype was close to what I wanted. I decided to go back and add a little more blade length and drop the handle angle just a tad. I’m pretty happy with the results 
The proto had gotten fullers and a tapered tang so it’s fairly lightweight for its size at 14oz. The final model is 18oz with a drilled out tang. The proto is 14in overall with 9in blade. The final design is 15in overall with a 9 7/8in blade.
