Paging JD...
Just saw this one pop up. Not sure if it's a new model or old news, I've never seen one. Looks pretty good. Granted there's not a lot of hook to the blade it's still a hawkbill which seems to be a lot to ask for these days.

Love how they add the choil need a choil for that detailed work when you are slashing an enemy to death

Re: Everyone who wants a fixed hawkbill..
Of all the blade shapes, I reckon an index finger choil makes the most sense on a hawkbill made for pull cuts. It stops that feeling of your hand slipping toward the back of the handle.
I don’t mind the pattern but 180 USD for aus-8 :eek:
Re: Everyone who wants a fixed hawkbill..
I've been screaming for a fixed blade Hawkbill for the past 10 to 12 years. But for some unbeknownst reason the idea hasn't gathered much steam as of yet :confused:
But in the past two to three years we are hearing of so many of the guys on the forums who have discovered how useful that Hawkbill blades are in gardening, landscaping and horticultural uses.
As big of a fan as I'm am with practical, useful fixed blades I feel like a fixed blade Hawkbill is way over due IMO.
And Spyderco could really come up with a premium model I'm sure.

Re: Everyone who wants a fixed hawkbill..
Eh, this one's handle is poorly designed. The choil is unnecessary(in that location).
Pass!
