If a fighter is the direction we're headed, consider a Chute blade. Never gave it look until GCTom posted one of his. This is one cool blade, damn sharp too.

Here's another look with a shorter blade.

I like the blade shape. I don't have one like that either.

Wally,

It doesn't suck, trust me and I think it would be up your alley given the stiletto point.

True, Warren, I'm a sucker for stilettos. I do have a couple of model 1s. I'm very open to an aesthetically pleasing design. The chute looks good. An 8 or 9 inch chute, is it possible? What's everyone else think?

Love this idea. Most blades I've seen are in the 5-7 inch range. Who said you can't make it bigger?

I'm down for a build.

I'm thinking either a "big ass camp knife" (hat tip to Wally) or a 4" (give or take) skinner.

top edge sharp?

Love that blade shape in the shorter version.

Of course it is!
