Very nice. I have one very similar that S. Potts made me. It's in stainless 35cpm I believe. He bead blasted the finish. I like the stainless for survival type knives.

I like the profile but it looks to me like that exposed spine with the file work would be a little hard on your hand.

It's certainly not for looks, I don't do anything for looks, it's for grip and it works... I chopped a 2x4 with it and I doubt cleaning wild game would put it through a more rigorous workout. The spines on the back are not sharp and the edges have a radius.

My son fell in love with it, so he now owns it... among a Brazilian others. God only knows how many of my knives he has.
