I'm beginning to recognize your work before seeing your name. That's another really well-done knife.

Sweet and simple but that flame birch just reaches out and grabs. I like it a lot.

thank's my friend's. You are to kind.
This bigger knives are little like the boy dream I had when I was a kid. Always wanted one but my dad told me it was enough with a standard scandi knife. lol

Kimmo,
That is a wonderful knife and I like the title I think you nailed it. I can see why such a knife would have been a dream as a boy too.
Good work.
