The likely ergos of that handle and it being a tanto makes that knife look quite impressive!Another Model 1. For those that don't know, ATC is now owned by Ryan Johnson. Ryan knows a thing or three about 'hawks.

Hawk was made by a blacksmith in the Sierra Nevada foothills (I'm blanking on his name). Knife was made by me, 1075, ebony, and padauk.

Numbered set?
Unfortunately, no. I had the opportunity for the numbered set but originally I only wanted the hatchet as a nice compact hunting and camping tool. Once I got the hatchet, I had to have the matching knife. The hatchet is #28 and the knife is #93. They are some of my favorite Winklers. The wood is so unique.

Damn!
I need to get out into the wilds!
Canteen. Fire starter. Fishing line.
A blade and a hawk. Clothes on my back. Nothing else.
Well, maybe a friend or two...

Those three are my wife’s small Winkler collection.
She really likes the DD, myself not so much. Nothing wrong with it, just not my style I guess.
I was pleasantly surprised by the BRH though, that I really liked.
The only negative to the BRH is the sheath in my opinion, it’s the standard Winkler sheath that is too bulky for a knife that small.
I wish they offered some sheath options for it like they do the Operator which currently has three options to choose from.
Nice! I have no use for a dagger but I like it.
I also have the BRH and love it. It's my go to hunting knife. I thought the same about the sheath. It's kind of awkward for the knife, but I don't mind as I don't wear it. I just pack the knife in my bag.
