My perfect knife would be about 8 1/2 in overall with about a 4 in drop point blade. The depth of this knife is perfect it would just need to be a little longer, my palm is 3 3/4 in wide so a 3 3/4in handle, plus a 4in blade, plus a 3/4 in bolster, it totals to 8 1/2 in.

I actually own a factory knife that's close. I would prefer a full tang over the hidden tang but this one works pretty well photo

A 6 1/2" knife must feel like a little neck knife in your big mitts...

Lol, it's hard for me to get a feel for such a small knife.

I like the profile and materials. Haven't seen fiddleback before but it looks cool. What kind of steel are you using?

I'd like a custom knife someday, it's just not high on my list of priorities right now, I do have preferences. I've had a lot of knifes over the years, the two keepers I own are, a Puma Hunters Pal and my Helle Eggen.
