I didn't see any choppers. Do you have any pics?
since he's pretty much doing "custom" only now, your best approach is to find a picture of a chopper that is exactly like you want. grip, blade style, length, etc. and send to him and see if he can do it.

RC ratings vary by usage, but I prefer between 58 to 61 on the max end.
For Damascus steel, I prefer Alabama Damascus.
6A, 154CPM and AUS8 are some of my preferred steels.
O1 tool steel for those that understand it is not a stainless steel.

There are no current knives for sale there as I only take custom orders these days, but if you look in the sold section, you will find some of my previous builds.
There are some sweet looking blades in there. Well done, Sir!
The Damascus looks great!
Thank you, let me know if I can help you.
Did you change the link? It's not working for me.

There's a typo. There's no 's' in custom. Add an s and it will work.

Full tang.
Tappered bolster to allow sharpening of the entire blade.
Forward balance.
Contoured handle for better grip. Or a classic handle made from a material allowing for better grip.
15" long.
10" cutting blade.
2" wide
I'll be chopping wood with it so strength and durability are paramount. Edge retention is secondary as I don't mind sharpening my own blades and I do it regularly.
This is pretty much exactly what I'm looking for, but they are constantly sold out and it's nearly impossible to get one.

I realize you probably don't work with CPM-4V but you could let me know what steel you would recommend.
