Double thumb studs and a Swedge work very nice on these.
Next get ahold of Gary Graley (G2 - He's the BEST) and get a nice sheath made.
This makes a GREAT EDC!!!

Professor: I may send it in to get a swedge but not the double thumblugs.
I have a G2 sheath but it is for a small. I may get a small wood inlay to fill that sheath soon.
The wood is box elder with a BG-42 blade. Very nice!
I still don't know if I will carry it. It may be a little to big. I may have to wait till I get a small. I'm thinking a stainless damascus blade and a Mnandi to match.

G2 tells me that on the Vertical sheaths a Wood Inlay may fit as there is a bit more room in the Vertical Models than the Horizontal carry sheaths.Being as with vertical you can retain the clip if you want . I love my Horizontal sheath , I also have a Vert sheath for a large Seb....seeing as the master says it may fit I have now have an excuse to buy a Large Reg Inlay 
Nothing like a G2 Leather sheath....remember plastic is for buying knives not for carrying them .
G2 ad campaign manager in Vegas ....lol !

Wow...that wood looks very much like mine in Desert Ironwood - maybe yours is a bit lighter. BTW, mine has been pocket-carried for 2 years, only polished on occasion (by me and it's previous owner - right Art? ), but STILL looks like yours in the picture. I was hesitant to carry it at first too...but It begged for use.

Hmmm...are you sure it's not ironwood??? Look at the default name of your pic when you right-click/save-as on it...

Warriorsociologist,
Mine is Ironwood S30V but DavidR stated his was box elder with a BG-42 blade. I posted just to show agreement with Professor's comment to "ship that joker back to CRK for double thumblugs and a swedge, and despite the naysayers, I can tell ya from experience you'll have a dressy folding fighter!"
