For you Texas boys: Cornertang. What are your theories on specific handling? Hafted or a cortage loop around the wrist?
I vote for hafted on the corner tang.
When they made those notches, they usually put a shaft or handle on whatever they went to the trouble to notch..
I can definitely see that RockinB, but at the same time the thought of a "razor blade" on a loop around the wrist while your hands are covered in blood, and needing to grab and pull hide and meat periodically in the the process opens my mind up a bit. Not having to set the knife aside, just seems really smart.
