It has a conventional hollow grind I think with the grind like about halfway up the blade from the point to within about 6 inches of the handle sort of loike a swedge almost then just tapers off to the 3/16 inch thickness all the way to the butt end of the handle, full exposed tang.

Now that I look at it more closely, the "swedge" from where it starts at the rear to the tip is a distal taper! Wow,never noticed that before.

I do love that knife Yote. It's kinda Nessmuk style isn't it? It is a copy of the Marbles Woodcraft knife. It is a good skinner ![[Linked Image from img.photobucket.com]](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v495/coyotebc/p340.jpg)

The only SYKCO knives I have handled are the three I own DM original YKCG Regulator TT I had the chance to get a used MUK for $100 on another forum, about 6 months ago but I was broke.
