When I was in the jungle I used cheap, locally produced kukhri knock off. It cost $5 and worked really well on the bamboo we used to build everything with. It really proved the usefulness of the design to me.

Both of the CRKT James Williams designs have Osoraku tanto points. They are a lot pointier than the more common blunt style.

This has been sitting in my draw for 8 months, now finally with lock down I got it done.
12c27n stainless, hidden tang with rosewood and ebony handle.

+ 1 for the Havalon. I got a bone saw attachment as was keen to try v-notch gutting method. This will require me to shoot something first...other than paper targets.

Boys loved it on Stewart Is. Very good for skinning deer.

How do you store your blunt blades, in original packet or the orange container.

That combo knife of mine has a lock on it so the scalpel cant open without being unlocked. Keeps it safe if say its loose in your pocket or pack. Imagine it opening and you sticking your hand in your pack to get something. Ouch.

Original packaging. New comes out and old goes in.

New filleting knife. Looking forward to giving it a test run. Just need to get out and catch something.
I will replace the handle with some nicer wood at some stage (maybe some plum I have got drying).

That's an Interesting lookng beast. I'm guessing it's some sort of traditional design?

Yeah. I have seen a few videos now of these being used so was interested to try one.

Yeah interesting. I use a deba for most of my filleting (one on the right). They make for super clean fillets cuts. Single bevel and get scary sharp

You'll work it out but as they make the initial cut with the belly rather than the tip they don't work as well on large scaled fish like snapper or kahawai. Work sweet on finer scaled fish like greenbone or kingy.
