of JK Handmade Knives, what model comes to mind first? What model do you consider to be my “signature model”?
 
I'm sure you've heard it from me before but I still believe the Hiker typifies JK Knives...... or should I say Stomper?
 
From my perspective which is only a little over a year of exposure, it’s the Kephart. When I think JK knives a wood handled Kephart comes to mind.
 
When I first found your knives a while back it was the hiker and kephart that drew me in, and now i would say the Element, Rule #9, or the bluegill
 
The old kephart. Loved it. Every time I use my pocket scandi, I delight in the quality.
 
The first thing I think of is the Kephart. The Nessmuk or CBK is what originally got me here but you kinda specialized in the Kephart for a while.
Of course I think the Rule #9 is your best work though. :)
 
I couldn't say for sure, but you make one of the best looking Kepharts out there and I'm not a fan of spear points.
I do love love love the Straight Back Kephart gifted to me by fishiker and can't believe more haven't been made.
Thank you again William!

I would say the Kephart drew me in, now I like the Element Series, and CBK.
 
Your Kephart (in its various configurations) is still the classic one for me. But personally, I'm still very fond of your EWOK and ViKtim.
