Awesome build, clean lines.

[@rossbaker5034]

One of the best looking drop point hunters I've ever seen. It's shaped almost identically to the one I have and it's my favorite hunting knife yet. Of course yours is quite a bit better made. I'd some day like to have me a custom one like this built for me. Excellent work sir.
