I like the idea of a #19 with Thuya burl. It would probably have some real heft to it.
If we're going with a fighter however, how about a Model #16 SP1 Special Fighter (love the full tang)?
Maybe we could see if a non-Micarta handle is do-able? How does Thuya burl with 4 finger grip and lanyard hole grab you?
And if we're not concerned with sharpening the top edge, how about a sawteeth/no teeth option for a spear point profile?
Just a thought...
