il photo the lot today guys , iv been up sinc 5am so should get finnished on most stuff in a few hours .

there has been lots of intrest already in everything iv made this week , i should have said i have a medium bushcrafter with beautiful burl oak handle brass pins and lanyard tube and a proper sheath with brass fittings to articulate it also, it not a full size knife its safe in my big old fat hands but would suit a smaller hand , lads junior or ladies hand and it is beautiful and a proper bush knife as the spec of allen woods / ray mears original spec .

Had my blade out on a rabbiting job last week and it performed to the standard you would expect from one of mats knives ... Razor sharp and fits nicely in the hand with a lovely balance to the knife ... Just the right size for paunching game ... I am going to use it next week for some deer skinning I will need to do and I reckons the size and weight of this little beauty will be spot on for the job ... Once again mat thank you for a fantastically well made knife ............
