Actually I like it very much. I would like it better with a different wood for the handles, but the overall look is great. The sheath is a real beauty too.

Dave,

What a simple beautiful design! Very nice!
I agree with KWM though, the wood gives it a very "Kitchen" knife appearance. If you did this knife with a nice Desert Ironwood, MAN!!

Very nice!! Great job on both the knife and sheath.

lol...I just realized that the scales ARE Ironwood. I guess it's just that particular piece that does not apeal to me.

Look's really good DC.Now what the heck is water moccasin belly skin? Snake of some type?

Stumpy,Yes,it is one the venomous types of snakes we have down here in Florida.My nephew killed it while out hog hunting.Thanks for your comments,Dave.
