Good Pigsticker?
Here's a pic of a knife one of my regular customers had me build (he provided the blade and scales). Does it appear to be useable on hogs? (Click pic to enlarge).

Thx,

I'm sure it would do in a pinch, heck the guys I hunt with use pocket knives to slit the hogs throat. But for a true sticker, I think the blade should be at least 7" long, 8" would be better. Most guys I talk to would like to see somekind of pronounced guard to keep the hand from sliping onto the blade. Other than that it looks great, nice knife.
