Good choice Danny. The 125 is a very nice knife, strong and sharp. Here's mine with a sambar stag handle.

With aluminum black. No kidding. You can get some from Brownell's I'm sure. I've used it on the aluminum receiver on my AR after drilling out an extra hole for mounting a scope on the handle, and for several other apps and it works great. Easier to use than cold blue IMO.

Just don't tell me you're going to use it on that fine knife...!

P.S. That looks exactly like the old Effingham Blackjack 1-5. I have two of the 1-7's, but not this size. Great knife. :thumbup:

Good deal. FYI the stuff I have is made by Birchwood Casey. You might be able to pick it up in the gun section of your local sporting goods store.

Come to think of it, since you live in Texas now it probably comes with a rifle and a free 1000 rds.

I got the 125 in the mail today and it is outstanding. Sharp, comfortable and good for bush/combat. Perfect.
