Variation on a theme

I really hate calling this a Nessmuk, because it's not; it just sorta looks like one at first glance. I'd ordered a full tang Nessmuk from Bob Engnath years ago and found that while I liked the looks it was a bit clumsy to use when not skinning/slicing etc.
So I lengthened the handle and dropped the point more to the center. Sort of makes it a semi-skinner with a big ol' hump now:31:. People seem to like it.

Blade is 4.5 inches(tip to plunge) of 3/32 inch CPM154CM. Copper bolster and trim and my homemade burlap Jcarta for scales. It's 9.5 inches OAL. Still needs a sheath/sharpened.
