  YES that's the " Hammon " was very fun the way I did....too bad I couldn't see the knife tip because the
  smoke and there is a mistake there....the temper line is a little too low near the tip....but well it's my first.
  and the handle has also some mistakes on my grinding ( eat too much micarta at the corners near ricasso )
  the blade has a small bent because of a mistake after heat treat ...and orther stuff that I could go on here
  for a week to explain how I suck....Maybe one day I will be able to sell some knives...and be called
  knifemaker....

  Thanks for the nice coments !

Top job  :salute:

I'm fond of a bit of orange G10.  That looks like a really nice knife.

I'm not taking any more mod orders at present, sorry.
