Hi all, I have a bit of a problem. I am not having any luck finding a knife that fits my hand comfortably. Here is my situation. I just sold my Bushcrafter, made by Allan Blade, not Alan Wood, and I am looking for a replacement knife. I love the look of the Woodlore knife on Ray Mears website.
My question is how do you guys judge whether or not a knife handle will "work" for you? Unfortunately no one I know here in Atlantic Canada is into bushcraft, and I do not have access to one of these knives to hold it, and think yeah that will work, or frig no leave that there.
Does anyone know if there is a woodlore style blade available anywhere that I could put my own handle on? I do not mind making my own handle, what I do not have access to is the tools to make the blade, also I do not know the dimensions for that blade.
Thanks for listening to my rant.
Geoffrey.
