          Should work great. Handle may be a little long for me, but I'm fond of the Three fingers.

            I like these little knives kevin...especially for the deboning process. The edge and the finger groove notch look good, but it's hard for me to fully appreciate blades in these early stages.

              I agree of the handle being a little long. Three fingers is a bout perfect for me for a caper. I'd like this blade with 3 finger handle for an edc knife..

                It's only a 7 1/4" knife. It might be long for some, but it's small in my hand. Lol.

                  To me,.it looks good except for the thumb groove on the spine. I think it would look better if you were to taper the rear of the groove less. A slower taper back up to the spine, leave the front like it is. Hope that makes sense. Please take it constructively.

                    I understand exactly, I thought the same. That's why I asked.

                        I'm thinking, tapering it back about two thumb grooves.

                          I would bring it back to about where the finger groove on the bottom peeks it's valley. Maybe it would give it a better "flow".

                              Okay, I changed it up some, I shortened the handle about 3/4" and reshaped the thumb groove.

                              Whatcha think?
