Mine showed up last week. I didn’t know no one had posted a comp finish with maroon yet.

Was blade a surprise show with little notice?

No, but they shut everything down for a week before they all left to go down and dings and all started just before that. I just figure that had a little to do with some of the delays in them going out.

I haven’t even been dinged for for my Nuke but I’m not in a rush

Hilarious that's worth quoting right there LOLOLO!!!

With as many regular ones yet to be delivered I see the nukes bringing up the caboose for the grand finally.... no matter how long it is, it won't be as long as the HOGB8, not even close so just a short sweat~ but yeah man, they all looks so freaking awesome I get happier and happier I jumped on one.

Alright, now where do we go to find a sheath for this thing?

Apparently cricketdave has the sheath thing figured out. Trouble is, he’s just doing them for himself.

If I could find a good source for heavy leather, I do believe I’d take to doing my own. Even though we’ve got some fabulous leather workers here in the forums, I think I’d like it as a hobby.
 
How heavy a leather are you talking? o_O

I haven't owned many double sided blades and those sheaths where kydex, wasn't sure if a leather with either a kydex insert or maybe only kydex in problem points (where tip of sheath is and on either side where you insert) to avoid cutting the leather a bit at a time every time you draw and re-sheath. I'm sure you can reduce the wear very much with a careful draw and insert but only so much.

Looking forward to the elegant solutions the sheath makers come up with! :D:D:D
 
Tandy has decent leather sometimes. I'm thinking about doing a loveless style sheath for mine. I didn't make this sheath just using it as an example. It's my knife though.

I get to go by the post office today to hopefully pick up my loaner!!!

Cant wait to handle this beast and get it into my shop! I feel like that evil scientist giggling over his project!!!!!

I do a variation on a lined sheath, a flat slab of kydex sandwiched inside the sheath, no plastic touches the blade. I'm not sure if this knife will require such methods yet, but it just might. :D
 
DADGUMMIT ... all these CF FMV8 pics aren't helping my ASD*!!!

I usually buy my leather at tandy, it helps thought to be close enough to actually pick what i want in person. As for the double edge a thick welt takes pretty good care of that. Its not like daggers haven't been made for centuries. I've planned to do a kydex sheath too when I get around to it.
