Made by a friend who surprised me with at the beginning of a hunting trip. He also did the leatherwork. He's one of those clever bastards🙂
Got to use it same day. Feek it's sharp and holds it's edge.

This I want. @Marty Henry how can I get one like this?
Please excuse spelling, as finger speed is sometimes behind brain spped........ Or maybe the other wayy.....
A recently finished Mamba , 1084 steel. G10 bright Orange handles combined with black and blue swirl front section.
The instructions were pretty clear as they had lost two other knives by putting them down and forgot to pick them up.... it had to be bright and easy to locate.
This ones heading to the deep south, Burt Munro country.
Made by John Isabeth @ Cullers Knives
John makes some seriously good knives here in NZ from pretty cool materials like old saw blades from timber mills.
A little Bill Nikl number custom made to a Possum Trappers own spec's, who never came back to pay for it.
So I bought it cheap. A sweet little knife with 3&1/4" blade.
The back of the sheath got gnawed on in a rat infested Urewera hut one night ...... gives it a bit of character
Seriously nice!
Or you can stay within 300 yards and keep life a lot simpler.
A nice useful little number from Svord. "The Amerikiwi"
I made 2 sheaths for this knife with its 3&1/2" blade. Which sheath I use depends on the length of the Hikoi.

Finished this little carbon and stainless San mai kitchen knife for my brother as a gift. Turned out pointy. Nice bit of died burl for the handle.

Got this as a gift today. Svord. It was the only choice, as the guy who got it for me and myself both used to live just down the road from Bryan Baker.
Identify your target beyond all doubt because you never miss (right?) and I'll be missed.

I reckon it will do for my lifetime. It's got a 5 3/4" blade. I skinned my first goat with a similar length skinning knife (from my father in law's meatworks days) and it was a great length. Such a good shape too - the point never catches.

Used to make a few knives, not had the spare time as of late unfortunately but thought you lot might appreciate some pics.
