Nice. Love those Westinghouse scales.
My name came up a week or so ago. Got a Yellowjacket and Kingfisher in the works. Waiting to see if he has a thicker set of Westy scales for the Kingfisher. Your pic just makes me even more impatient.
Thanks for sharing.

I think this #4 is ever so slightly scaled up in size just a touch over the one I had previously. This has a 3.5" blade with 3.25" of cutting edge and the handle seems just slightly up sized. The older #4 in Ironwood I had before this one was a 1/4" shorter in blade and a bit more delicate in the handle. Since this is going to see duty deboning and quartering big game for the backpack it suits me perfectly. I didn't spec this knife out to Gene personally, my wife ordered it for me as a surprise birthday present. I had seen a picture of this knife on Gene's website and showed it to my wife casually commenting, "This would go perfectly with my Westinghouse Slim Ingram - hint, hint!" That was last year sometime and I'd completely forgotten about it until the little lady said "Keep an eye on the mail. I'm expecting a package from Gene Ingram!" WHAT?  The wife had Gene duplicate the picture and as it turned out it was perfect for my intended purposes.

I love it. I really want to get a couple Ingrams, time to place an order.
