UnCarry is the smallest knife I make. It is still super functional and I’ve cleaned several deer with mike. Makes a great backpacking or EDC fixed blade. Just under 6” overall length. Steel is 0-1 carbon steel. ![[Linked Image from i.postimg.cc]](https://i.postimg.cc/59krFLMj/42-D765-F2-FDCC-4579-B0-D0-9-FEFEE254863.jpg) ![[Linked Image from i.postimg.cc]](https://i.postimg.cc/ncjPKrH2/12-AD3-E74-B84-C-4-CE3-9-E80-13840734-A36-F.jpg)

How long is the blade? Looks like a good squirrel skinner.
Every normal man must be tempted, at times, to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats.

I’ll have to measure. I’m really not sure.

I do love a small fixed blade, but the handle length is critical for me. Overall length has to include at least 4 inches of handle. That is one fine looking knife!

This blade on the pattern measures about 2.625” edge when sharpened.

A cutting edge of 2.5" - 2 .75" is about perfect for cleaning a bunch of squirrels .

Love it. Scales aren’t my thing, but profile is perfect and looks extremely useful!

I like plain old G-10 or paper micarta for scales. I especially like G-10 scales that have been glass bead blasted. I agree with you, the profile is perfect and looks exceptionally useful. I dig this knife.
