I use a Mini version of My DSK as a field blade on small game But he handles is still sized to make it usable

That is rather pretty. What steels do you offer that in? How thick is the blade?

Dare I ask the price?


Very pretty.

I carry and use a spyderco man bug with the lock removed as my edc don't need much else in a folder but couldn't go any smaller,

fixed blades wise I'm looking forward to giving the new Mora a go otherwise its probable an esee candiru or a bark river psk

Whenever we have a vet out they always use a bare scalpel blade....out of a dozen or more vets i'v never seen one with a scalpel handle. Don't think you are gonna get much smaller than that

I like the look of that.

Did you ever consider other Blade Designs such as Modified Tanto , or Wharncliffe?? Just wondering if on a smaller Knife that Blade design is as useful as something which would provide a little more straight cutting length?

( No doubt I'm going to get schooled now :) )

Not as such as Ive not been asked for one I might cut the next batch to give Ability to grind in different blade shapes something I doing more to Give flexibility and not hold hundreds of expensive blanks in lots of different patterns some of which dont sell very fast.
I do like Wharncliffe and use one on a small Kydex Folder EDC very handy ..
Ive used it to Cut Roofing felt and take Tiles of the wall along with all the usual EDC stuff
