Howdy.
I just got done with a Model #4 Missouri that is scheduled to be beat upon by myself and a few others.
This one's 3/16" 1075 instead of the usual 1/4" stock. It's got Jade g-10 scales and spacers with blue g-10 liners.

It's got the reverse varied convex grind but instead of highlighting the bevels I hand-sanded the whole thing. Which believe it or not was actually quicker than trying to fiddle with getting the lines just right.

Stay tuned for the Missouri test video coming soon. I hope to have it up this weekend sometime.
Thanks for looking,

I have no idea what you just said but that is one cool looking knife. You better bring it with you the next time we go out together!
 
I like the arc you gave it.

Looks like it would be a great chopper!
 
Thanks, guys. I did some work with it last night and I gotta say I'm diggin' it. I have never been much of a big knife sort of guy but that's changing.
I hope to have a vid up in the next couple of days.
Thanks for looking.

You know it. I'll have it with me this fall when we get together.

Thanks, guys. I'm gonna try to get the vid done tomorrow...if it ever quits raining. The wife gets a little sassy when I take her expensive video camera out in the rain.:(
