Thanks, guys, I'm really proud of this one. It's my first customer order / request. I hope to have more repeat buyers in the future!
 
And the buyer that donated the wood for the slabs was nice enough to let me keep the excess (they were 8"x8"x5/16" slabs, roughcut) and actually declined taking a discound on the knife in payment for keeping it. Excellent person to work with. I'm working the sheath up now to his specs. I have to say, having an order forces me to really concentrate more on the piece and focus.
 
Here are the final pics before it goes out with the sheath fresh out of the hopper! Hope you like....
