concerning the firesteel loop, i have found a solution using a 3/8"x4" fire steel you can use in the same manner as your mora sheath but you are just striking with top of the sheath pointing the target.
That Woodlore has a 12 year wait too! That would suck to wait all that time to get that knife only to find out it doesnt fit in your hand comfortably. Great video!

Good looking knife! Work around the railroad a while you wont like a neck knife very long. As you get that lanyard caught on a car that is rolling by and your neck goes with it. Not good.
Since seeing this I have bought one and I have to agree with you. The knife is superb and the maker is very accommodating and a genuinely nice guy. I have some woodlore type knives and this knife easily holds it's own with them. I put it through a long day on some hard woods and the edge was still great at the end of the day. Can't say enough about this knife, very, very good knife.The blade turns really well when carving. The sharp tip is fantastic for finer detail. Very comfortable in the hand
I prefer an outdoor knife with a full cutting edge. It's the area where a folder always presents difficulties, I see no need to be subjected to this limitation with a fixed blade. Although there is probably a limit on how thin a handle can be, I do have a butcher's knife handle which is relatively thin, it does however have more than reasonable depth to it and seems to offer excelent control because of this depth. It is not particularly tiring with meat, gourds and squashes or whittling wood.
I frequently use a BCNW O-1 from Bushcraftnorthwest and a BabyBear in wet conditions. (Living in the Pacific Northwest) Never had any soaking problem. You have to take care of the handle also, not just the blade.I use Ballistol to protect my handles...and also works great on the blade. Ballistol is a biodegradable, nontoxic, and non petroleum..lubricant.
Hi, I did not believe all the hype about Ballistol until my brother gave me some. It is great for everything and even when it does not appear to be present the residue still protects steel from rust.
I'll keep an eye out, but I have had absolutely no problems with my handle despite using it i really wet environments, it works really well in the wet.
there is a knife quite similar to this knife, called the bcnw 01. i had one, great design, but the handle material let it down, it has the same material as the ones in the video, it soaks up water like crazy. maybe this knife doesnt have this problem, but id be wary of it
Yup, the blade should come sharp all the way to the handle... unless there is some type of useable choil.

The Roselli Carpenter knife is similar to the Woodbear. I have one and it is excellent for carving wood.
