I made a post on the subject not long ago in another thread: http://www.outdoorsmenforum.ca/showt...32#post4545932
First of all, thanx for the kind words folks!

fishnguy: They actually all work fine, despite the different shapes. But yes the black one is the best out of those three.

The one that was the most challenging was the gutting knife, mainly due to the blade design. As you notice, the spine has different radiuses, and the cutting edge between the tip knob and thumb holder is "recessed". Completely different that a normal straight blade. I had to do internal filing, and learned a few tricks in the process.

But at the end the day, I managed to get the "click" I wanted, which I'm sure you know what I'm talking about..
