There are always , within any grouping, those that do not fit. This is those knives. What is a subhilt, is it a Bowie, is it Dagger, is it somehow a hunter? Fanciful creations that defy categorization but yet represent edged tools like the rest.

Amboyna Drop Hunter - for small hands
Amboyna Drop Hunter - for small hands
This knife is designed for the smaller hand. Both in length and thickness. It is an extremely light knife but a knife that will still do all that is asked of it. Don't forget that it is much safer to use a good knife rather than something that might snap and injure the young person. (Just helping you convince the child's Mother)
The knife is 7 inches overall and 2 7/8" tip to bolster.
The blade steel is CPM154 with a full tang.
The handle material is stabilized Ambonya Burl.
It will come with a custom handmade leather sheath in your choice of left or right hand draw.
Hybrid Drop Hunter
This is a new pattern for me based on a request for a knife for the daughter of a customer.
Designed for those with hands that have cross palm measurement of between 3" and 3 1/2".
The knife has a full tapered tang and comes with a variety of handle material.
The one shown here is Thuya Burl.
Overall length of the knife is 7" and it comes with a hand made leather sheath.
Yellow/Black G10 Drop Point
Yellow/Black G10 Drop Point
To me this handle material is green/black but the label said yellow/black. Either way it is a very distinctive knife.
The blade is CPM154 and the handle yellow/black or green/black depending on your eyesite is G10.
The knife is 8 1/4" overall and will come with a hand made all leather sheath.
Ironwood EDC
The perfect EDC ( Every Day Carry). 7 1/2 inches overall with a 3 1/2 inch blade. The blade steel is 440C tested to 59 Rockwell. The bolsters are 416 and the handles are ironwood burl. It has a lanyard hole and is secured with carbon fiber pins. The tang is tapered for that nice quick feel in the hand and the handle slabs are sculpted to fit beautifully in either hand.The sheath is hand made and all leather.
Blue Tak Dress Hunter
The knife is 7 1/2" long overall with the blade made of Takefu Shiminagashi, a layered steel out of Japan. The central core is Japanese white Paper high carbon steel then wrapped in 10 layers, five per side, of low carbon steel. The handle material is premium blue crackle mammoth ivory and the bolsters are 416 stainless. Comes with the sheath as shown.

Spalted maple Dress Hunter
Spalted maple Dress Hunter
Delbert Ealy supplied the damascus blade steel and my brother inlaw supplied the spalted maple. I did the stabilizing and added the Del Ealy damascus bolster. The knife is 7 1/2 inches overall and comes with a hand made sheath
Amboyna Drop Hunter
This started out as Loveless style drop hunter but with the sculpted handles I am not sure it still qualifies. Anyways it feels great in the hand. 8 3/4" long overall with a 4" blade. The blade is 440C, the guard is 416 and the handles are stabilized amboyna burl with pretty red liners to set them off just right. It comes in a hand made leather sheath as shown.
Lovess Style Drop Hunter
At 8 3/4" this hunter is as close as I can come, so far, to matching Mr Loveless Drop Hunter. It has 440C blade, 416 guard, amboyna burl handles with red liners. It comes with a hand made leather sheath.
