Everyone likes what they like but this could be my personal favorite knife I have made, If it wasn't rushed for a wedding I would keep it and start a new one...lol. But it is going to a fellow who is giving it to his best friend for a wedding gift. I'm not sure why this style knife got dubbed a skinner, the point is to sharp in my opinion but it makes one heck of a all around field knife. The tapered tang on this one makes it very light even with the huge bolster, balance point is right at bolster. 8 1/4" total 3 3/4" blade, cut from 3/16" stock thickness cmp154cm stainless with a full flat grind. handle is stabilized spalted Tamarind, nickel silver stacked bolster, nickel silver and copper Mosaic pins, tapered tang.

That is one beautiful knife. I'd like to learn more about the differences in steel used and what the benefits are between them.
