Looks good. I like the way it fits under the welt.

Thank you. I have seen it done before and always liked the idea. I will say its very satisfying sliding it in the sheath and snapping the snap.

Thanks very much. I have been looking for a small head knife & that is perfect for me. 

Thanks again.

Diesel Tech,  it's a great knife, very sharp from makers. I'm sure my complaints are my lack of experience with it.

ETA: sorry I screwed up the quote.

Really nice work on the stamping ! I like the way you used the border stamps. The back looks every bit as nice as the front. Nice work!

I like the work, scared of all that blade

That one's only 2-3/4" across, just the right size. Besides, those blades don't getcha much once you get used to them. Getting used to them can be a challenge, though...

Very nice job on the sheath. As for the blade size, I made a small round knife from a worn out half-round blade from my multi-tool (so it's about the same size as yours but a bit thinner) and I find it a nice size to use.

Went to order that knife this morning. Dang it! Wouldn't you know it was sold out. Sold out over night. Dang it.

It's a great size and knife. I just need more time behind it. I'm planning on using it a lot on my net few projects so I can get more comfortable with it.

Diesel Tech, keep checking back his inventory seems to be resupplied fairly quickly. I had the same thing happen a while back with his buck stitching chisels.

I did lol. I just do this as a hobby and my wife got me the makers mark for Christmas. It has my real name on it and call me paranoid ( I probably am over paranoid) I dont want my real name on a public forum. 

My therapist says "Just because you're paranoid doesn't mean that everyone isn't out to get you."
