Damn nice looking knife looks unused!
It was in those pics. However, still looks brand new now other than the new sheath (dog chewed up first one after smelling blood in it).

I also had an order in with Gene Ingram that was close to two years and as mentioned above he quit making knives. I was back to square one and decided to have a similar one made by Charles May. He was also two plus years out, BUT @NDGuy came to the rescue and let me get in on his order that was just about to happen.

Received this the other day- it's the Bird & Trout II LB (long blade- 4") in SV30- perfect length, profile and steel for a boning knife for big game AND with orange G10 easier to find when I know I will eventually put it down in the grass! :D. Thanks @NDGuy

I like Charlie's Skipjack boner for the bigger handle and little longer blade.

My May knives also came in, these are phenomenal and very much similar to Gene's well worth the wait!

Tyler worked with me to design the shape and features of the custom knife I wanted. This is #0001 of the "Infidel" line he started after he made mine.

Tyler is 2x Forged in Fire winner and Army veteran.

This knife has processed several whitetails and assisted with the bull I shot last fall.
He's makes nice stuff

Made for me by a coworker. I wanted something with a heavy spine that could break the pelvic bone of a deer or elk, works great for deer, elk not so much, you just cannot put enough weight on it to break thru.

Both 5/16" spine, micarta up top and Ironwood down below

Skinning/boning two antelope over the weekend, I can say it's everything I was hoping for. A few light strokes on the strop when I got home had it popping hair :)
