    Bushman with Shoulder Rig

    Scott recently completed this Cruforge Bushman with a belt-sanded, hammer-marked finish and made a shoulder rig for it as well. Let us know what you think.





    The Kydex sheath attaches to the should holster with a single Chicago screw . . .



    . . . and the sheath comes standard with a Tek-Lok fastener, so the knife can be worn on a belt as well. In addition, the Tek-Lok can be removed to facilitate a cleaner carry in the shoulder rig.





    The rig has multiple adjustments points and can be worn by a wide range of individuals . . .



    . . . and it connects via a belt loop. This rig is set up for a right-handed individual, but we can make them for lefties too.





    Thanks for looking.

    Scott,Lydia,

    Scott's Bushman has such nice lines, and this is a good example, The wrap is practical,and good looking, besides.

    The rig's cool, too, not to mention those shades.

    You two make a great team. I like seeing that as much as the knife and sheath, and it's great!

    Thanks every one. It is not the artwork I have seen many of you post, but it is a good knife and finishes a set for my neighbor. He has two Cruforge blades now and says they cut like nothing he has ever seen. I know Cruforge is a pain to forge and grind, and the finish never looks quite perfect, but I really love the way it cuts. Lydia is the brains behind the operation, obviously, and I probably would never sell a knife without her. I am lucky.

    Nice work! Love the lines on your bushcraft. Cruforge use is foreign to me, but what a great knife this would be to learn from. That looks ready for action!

    Great set up for carry under a jacket! The only comment I would make is I always like to have a lip at the mouth of the sheath so you can just push off with your thumb and pop the knife out without having to jerk on it. Since kydex tends to hold a knife very snugly I find that's a good solution for easy extraction.
