Yes I'm still here, I'm happy about all brass, it should balance OK with such a big blade.

I did want to discuss a double hilt with a 50% reduced top hilt, to make it a double duty knife as a pig sticker and a camp knife. I guess it would mean using up another option but it would be a unique look and a more versitile outdoor knife.

1 Double hilt top reduced
2 Brass and Black or Red spacers
3 Gidgee
4 Finger grips
5 Brass butt cap rounded

1 Double hilt top reduced
