I recently fashioned this one out of an old army mess-kit butcher's knife...
My take on a Horace Kephart style knife but with a 6 inch blade & 1/8 at the spine, handles are home grown walnut.

Good job on that one, Derek. And it is nice to hear from you! I have a Korean War Schrade Pilot Survival knife (the real one, not the commercial versions) in the door of my van; I don't know if I will ever have an occasion to use it. These pics are of the safe queen; the one in the van ain't so pretty.

I have three of those coming in the mail, hopefully, and I am looking forward to them. I have heard good things.
Wow! They are here and I am impressed! Just sayin...

Ya just can’t beat those Mora knives for general cutting. Awesome knives.

Very good knives for the money. They will take and hold an edge very well.

Love that third blade down.
What is that "skeleton" blade up from bottom of page?.
It's a copy almost of a divers knife I had 45ish yrs ago.

My Bush knife I've carried as primary for 50 rs. is an old Martiini. moulded handle,
Brass hilt and end cap. Plus my Puma Prince in pocket, and Hunters pal in pack for skinning.
Changed from Prince to a Schrade Sharpfinger. stag handle. engraved for caping around '80/81.
Probably one of the top 3 caping knives for small to mid sized animals.
They also make a very good all round smaller knife for everything.safer than folder. and stronger to.
