  • My new knife design...

    I took two of my favorite knives and looked at the pros and cons of both and came up with this design I want to have made.

    Anyone know of someone who has some affordable talent to make this happen?

    I going to call it "LEONIDAS"

    I would like it made out of 1/4" 01 tool steel.

    I also want to go with a flat grind on this size of knife, but not all the way to the top.

    Any advise is welcome, but I want to stay with the 1/4" thickness and blade length/O.A. length for sure.

    Do you want someone to cut the profile for you...or do the complete knife?...

      Good looking design. What plans do you have for a handle?

        That's a pretty awesome knife you designed. i personally love ESEE knives and I like the idea of taking the pros of their knives and making an even better design

          Probably the whole knife.

            That's a good question, I want it pretty much bomb proof so I was thinking a rough Micarta with stainless bolts.

              Thank you, I also love the ESEE knives and the Ontarios, but I really want something custom and like these knives so much I wanted to base it on a happy medium if you know what I mean.

                  I feel yah, I have a number of knives that I love, the ESEE HEST being one of them, but there is always something I feel I could improve or wish was there (or not there). I have thought of making a custom for a while now, I just keep changing the design haha.

                    Looks like it would make a great chopper.
