You’re welcome, and happy birthday and many more! Great review and pics too.Thanks Doc and Coleman still a nice surprise and a grand gesture only topped by it arriving on my birthday, it showed a scheduled delivery of Feb 6th, but, I called in a favour from the Border Patrol and got it through a bit quicker...nah that's a fib lol just some fate mixed in with good intentions from friends
And here's some images of the sheath, the packaging to get here was top notch as is the sheath. It's a squeeze type meaning to have the knife come out, you apply pressure on both stitched sides and the knife will then drop out. The sheath has a lining of softer leather inside to keep the bunny cozy...
First off a big thank you toDocJekl for helping to get this #42 for me, it was a bit of wrangling but worth the effort!

The Bunny knife rests down below the top so it is protected and on the sheath there is a riveted hole that you can use to tie a cord on that can drape out of your pocket for handy retrieval, or loop it around a belt loop for security measures as well as making it handy to pull the sheath out to access the knife.

Nicely done Coleman. You’ve knocked it out of the park again this year!
If these are still available, I'd like a Distressed with Beige. If not, I understand.
I have #285 if it matters.
Just received this from Coleman and it is differentiating up to his standards. I’m going to have to remember him next year if he is willing to do another forums sheath.
