I've been obsessed with getting a Kramer Gutshot ever since I first saw one (oddly enough, it was Gutshot John's own knife). Finally contacted Eric a few months ago to get the process going. He had a couple options as to steel and finish, but I wanted the original recipe (s35vn steel, satin finish). He just sent me a progress pic the other day after he heat treated it.

 

In the immortal words of Crocodile Dundee, " Now THAT'S a knife!"

I've never cut myself with one of my knives before (knock on wood), but I feel like this thing is going to shed blood one way or another.
