Although the film The Full Monty might lead one associate the phrase "going Full Monty" with taking off one's clothes, according to Phrase Finder, "the most often-repeated derivation is from the tailoring business" and refers to "a complete three-piece suit." At Guinea Hog Forge we subscribe to the latter derivation and going "Full Monty" with us means buying a knife with two sheaths and a custom rig, so if you were hoping to see a little skin here . . . well, take a closer look at the leather work - it's part of a custom 3-piece set that goes with blade:)

Scott recently finished this "Full Monty" Native for a customer. He hand-forged it out of Cruforge V, gave the blade a "Rustic" finish, then fitted the knife with a scalloped Micarta handle, and dressed it in two sheaths (Kydex and leather), as well as a custom Kydex shoulder holster rig.

Thanks for looking, and I hope I didn't scare you with that title:)

I love seeing Scott's knives, they always have such a nice flow and rustic elegance.
The sheaths really round out the package nicely! :thumbup:
 
I love it... and great package for the customer. I'm always excited to open your posts... but this time I was hesitant. :-)
 
Love it, too. Scott's blades have great aggressive shapes, and the Micarta handle on this one's looks both good and functional as all get-out!

Just wanted to say thanks to all. This one is a pure user. The full monty thing was definitely the wife's idea.
 
That's a great setup, and a very cool looking knife. I'm sure it's going to serve its purpose very well for it's lucky owner.
