 |  | Ahh...fiddling with the ergonomics, I see.
Give Rick a holler as well and see what he thinks about it. He also might be interested in making one for you.  |
I love Rick's work, amazing stuff, but he is outta my price range I'm afraid !!!!

 |  |  |  |  |  | So how soon befor you unload that mod4 to me pit?  | speaking of unloading, did you find that Hatchet ??  |
crud, I did yes. My cheeky ol' father somehow ended up with it in his gardening equipment.
He had come over a few times this summer to get some tools, should have taken stock.  | > Ah, no worries

I'm leaning towards the second one. Just looks like it would perform better to me.

OK I think this is my final design as I'm quite happy with how this one looks, kinda a compromise between the two.

Go have a fundraiser.
Sell some cookies or something.
Or have a yard sale. We all have junk we need to get rid of.
Or sacrifice some of your current blades.

Got a pic? I've heard of Swamprat knives, but I'm not familiar with them.
