This is a bushcrafter by Bill Siegle. I couldn't pass up a chance to own another knife made by Bill. But I decided to delay gratification a little longer, and I asked Bill if he could send it over to Spen at JRE Industries for a custom-fitted leather sheath. Although Bill makes probably the best Kydex sheaths of any maker (and I'm keeping the one for this knife!), I thought a bushcrafter should have a bit of leather. :)

The scandi edge that Bill put on it was very nice right out of the box, too. I spent a good 40 minutes or so stropping it on my Strop Blok, and it will now push-cut phonebook paper. I paid particular attention to stropping the lower portion of the blade, near the handle, as that is the most-used area for bushcraft cuts. Very nice knife.
 
Very nice!!! I have 4 of Bill's knives they are true hard use tools that will never let you down! Love the JRE sheath you had made for it goes great with a bushcrafter!!
