Fixed blades

I can let these pics out now, from a couple months ago....it was a surprise, but now the person has it, so I hope it's Ok showing pics.

It's my field knife in 8670, but more canted handle giving a slightly more aggressive cut.
I was going to put OD linen bolster with Osage rears, but the person asked for vintage linen oatmeal, instead. It's a harder Micarta, probably because of its age? And has dark speckles in it. Probably flax seed hulls?
Typical handmade hardware, flared lanyard, and a bead I made on a Very old lathe with parting tools, files, and by eye....I don't make beads. Not sure what I'm doing?
I made the sheath with the option of mounting vertical or tilted forward for a more ergonomical draw. Edge forward, reverse grip.

It's going to look gorgeous some day, all darkened, stained, and Blotchy.
Thanks.
