Really a nice one Rick , if I was back in Canada it would be mine -------- nice package as usual
 
Rick what dye and what color are you using on that sheath? That package looks really great.
 
Hey Wade!
The lighter shade is just natural neatsfoot oil. Warm leather and several light coats to get what you want. Be sure to get real neatsfoot oil and not the compounds. The edge color is Fiebings cordovan. Do the edge dye before the oil. Little tip- get the leather pretty well wet before doing the edge. Won't wick into where you don't want it. Steady hand helps!

I kept looking at this knife and really liked it. Then I realized it's just like the one on my bedside table. No wonder I liked it. I liked it 2 years ago too!:D:D:thumbup:
 
Still doing what it does best , one of my favorite EDC's , the boot clip is the only way to go as i seldom wear a belt .
