I spent many years in a recce troop monitoring the movement of many things both organic and non organic it does help to determine what your target will do if you have a in depth knowledge of your chosen target, you can also determine the outcome if you can influence or engineer their future actions as for the knife I personally wouldn't use it its to gimmicky not made for purpose

This is a sort of variation on the tracker. From what I have seen and read about his knives Dan would not make a bad knife. Also cheaper than the tracker if you were wanting to buy one to test. Usual I have nothing to do with the maker and personally I don't like this style of knife.

"After profiling, the blade itself (with all holes drilled) weighs in at 1 lb. 4 oz.

After grinding and tapering, it drops to 1 lb. 1 oz. The handles add 2-3 oz. (cocobolo = 2 oz., G-10 = 3 oz.)

This one came in around 19 ounces, which is 1.35 ounces per inch. The ideal proportion for a kukri that you'd want to carry would be 1.2 to 1.4 oz/in. A beefy chopper would be 1.5-2.0 oz/in.

The TB Tracker, by comparison, is 12.5 inches and 28 ounces, making it 2.24 ounces per inch.

Despite the lighter weight and better balance (at the finger ring) this WSK chops like a kukri - as planned, and expected - and you can belt-carry it without it pulling your pants down."


Here are a couple of his finished knives with different options showing
