This is one I call a "pack knife" as it should reside in one's pack.
Big enough to handle some kindling splitting/batoning and small enough to dress a northern.

The handle shape looks very comfortable. What's the overall length? Another beauty.

I forget. I don't write those things down very often.
The blade is every bit of 5 3/4" - 6".
Another 5 inches for guard and handle.

I just watched a few of the videos and plan to watch the rest over the winter. Thank you for sharing.
