If I ever

[caneman]

Get to try knife making I think what I would like is a shape similar to those made in the movie "The Hunted" with Tommy Lee Jones. I think "Cold Steel" used to offer one similar called the "Warthog". I think it had a 1/4 Inch thick blade. Of course if I make it with my lack of skill it will look more like Tommy Lee's. Very rough, but hopefully serviceable.

Sweet James posted this link in a thread a week or so ago as a useful knifemaking reference if you're interested
