Nessmuk Knives

Considering the humble beginning as a modified sheepskinner butcher knife - we sure are seeing some elegant knives being made currently!
I like the Peterson pipe too. I often wonder where mine went.

A Nessmuk inspired knife is getting easier and easier to find, but I would not even bother considering the factory versions when Dale's are so easily had in exactly the sort of dimensions and materials you choose. His work is worth a bit of wait but his prices are in line with the factory stuff, plus you get the benefit of working with a great fellow.

This one was made by Allan Blade. An incredible piece of craftsmanship. Someday I may even use it.

This is a great thread about Nessmuk knives. I've recently found an interest in them and thought I'd put one together. This one is 1/8" thick O1 with a 4 1/4" full convex grind blade. 4 1/4" handle with sambar stag scales. These knives seem to be a good all around camp knife.

I was thinking about making another one of these from 5160 steel. whats dimentions should it be? Ie. How thick, wide and long etc. Would a flat blade with a scandi grind (convexed or flat) be best?
cheers in advance.
