Looking for a full tang Scandi grind...

I want the blade to be similar to the Mora Pathfinder in shape and length.

I would also like to find someone making these or able to customize it with some Bog Oak scales for the handle.

I've look at Enzo blades and they don't have one long enough.  And since I don't really have the tools or know-how this would still need to be customized.

Also trying to keep this no more than $150-175.

How about a Buck/Hood Thug....looks ok for 110$ knife

I don't have one, but I have the Punk....so far so good, paid 90$ for it last year

look around here.  I am sure that there is someone with that style of knife.  If you find one you like but isn't long enough or whatever, you can always contact the maker and ask them to do one for you the way you want.

Thanks for the link.  So far I don't see many in the style I want, and prices are all over the place.  Really hard to judge who might be a good one to contact.

Condor Hudson Bay is close to what you want.  

$150 for a custom knife is a tall order.

Really looking for this blade style but in a full tang...  I could deal with the Mora Pathfinder although it has more of a drop point.  Seems so strange to me that no one makes a full tang straight blade style like this.

You can find a bunch of similar knives at Ragnar's Ragweed Forge.  I looked quickly and while some have a full length tang, I didn't see any that were true full tang although I did not do an exhaustive search...

Start with their home page and dig thru the various manufacturers - you might see something that strikes your fancy...  all seem to be in your price range!

Here's something that's pretty close, but it aint custom or Bog Oak.

Still  a very good knife.  I have one, but not in the Scandi Grind.  BarK River makes great knives.

Thanks.  I've already been in contact with Ragnar.  I was sort of hoping her would take on the idea as a custom piece.  But doesn't look like he was interested.

Try Guy at Survive Knives. He is supposedly doing a run of scandi grind GSO 4.1's soon. Maybe he can do a custom handle for you. Price is only slightly higher than your budget, closer to the $200 mark.

Thanks.  Sent him an Email with my ideas to see if it is something worth trying.

No wood.  Don't personally care for scandi but to each his own.  $170.00

Scales attached with screws means you can make em out of anything you want.

Might something like THIS be helpful?  Knife OAL is 10"; blade is 5".
