This is a first for us, a model which I named the Carpenter. This may be the only one we make, but I haven't decided on that yet. It has a chisel grind on the top and a flat scandi ground cutting edge. It also has an extended tang and no handle skeletonization to allow for solid batonning on the pommel. No lanyard tube, just a bolt and pins. This is one solid work horse.
