love the Bolo. The handle looks super-comfy. in fact, when i ordered my UNK, i was considering asking for a bolo handle on it. I didn't. i figured i would try the "standard" handle first..

the bolo looks great Scott. And, congrats Stan. What a beaut! :thumbup:

 

[dcycleman]

Man, I love the bolo, I agree the handle looks like you could use it hard for a long time, with no discomfort, you got one nice set Stan!

 

[silenthunterstudios]

That came out really nice. Gotta see some pics of it in action Stan!

Looking good! My bolo is still going strong. The forward weight and continuous angle from the handle make it a great chopper.

Now...here is a thought. There is a Tusker and Mini-Tusker. What would the Mini-Bolo look like?

4" blade, 4.25" handle. Same shape, just scaled down.


What do you say Scott, up for the challenge?

 

[Gossman Knives]

You know me, always up for a challenge. My thought is how would a wide blade be in a 4" length?

A mini bolo would cool, though I would really love to see Scott's version of a Canadian camp knife

 

[k_estela]

1.25 down to .8 or .9" wide at the ricasso. I think it would be cool. I'll have to sketch one up and throw it on here.

That's what I was thinking, not as wide and the 10" bolo. Canadian camp knife is a good idea.

Thanks, Gary

Well , bark river makes a Canadian special , I don't have a link right now. I would love to see Scott's take on this classic design ( not necessarily brkt , but the Canadian belt knife in general)

 

[geargeek]

This sounds a bit like the small Dear Creek which Scott made for me not long ago, a great little knife!

 

[dcycleman]

I think the deer creek definitely resembles a Canadian belt knife

The Deer Creek is much like the Canadian belt knife. I think a bit wider.

Mini Bolo,

My two cents. Take the Large Deer Creek, flip it over and make the top (now bottom) the sharpened end. The curves resemble a small bolo.

 

[Andster2]

Double post.

 

[dcycleman]

I think if you crossed a deer creek with a Polaris, you would have a Canadian belt knife
