Fixed blade version of the Spyderco Manix

[Stew]

This one is done.

I used the Spyderco Manix as the basis for the shape, but don't actually have one so it may not match too well!

It fits the hand securely and the handle is made from Burgundy micarta, white liners and mosaic pins (from Rob).

I had originally put a scandi grind on the blade but it just wasn't sitting right with the design for me so I convexed it. Much better! 8)

I wasn't sure about using white liners as I didn't think it would show up well, but it does!

Oh, and I decided to place my mark in an appropriate place, considering the origin of the design.

Now that's my kind of knife. Nice one Stew.

Too right mate, obviously there is plenty of Spyderco influence in my knife, especially the full flat versions. I think Spyderco missed a trick not designing a bushcraft varient around that pattern, and you just proved it. I bet the ergonomics are sweeeeet.

Very nicely put together Stew, interesting shape too, looks handy
