I was mistaken a while back when Raj sent this knife out to have a sheath
made, a promise I had made to him a long time ago as I don't take on fixed
blade sheaths but leave those for my good friends that enjoy making them
I stick to the folder realms when it comes to making sheaths any more.
But, in a thread that had Show Off Your Leather, I wrote that the knife was
made by Ron Newton and it certainly is insprired by Ron as Raj was at Ron's
shop and was under his tutelage during the process, now I don't know that
Raj will take up hammer and tong to continue making knives to order, I think it
was more the desire to create a knife and he dearly loves the knives that
Ron Newton makes, who wouldn't??
So, to highlight and apologise for my error, here is that knife by Raj
Sorry Raj for not correcting this sooner! I edited my post in the previous leather
thread, it's a lovely knife and fine workmanship, perhaps we can get Raj to
chime in and provide some detail how this all came together?
and Merry Christmas to everyone!
