I had a very nice delivery from Chad
cpirtle
this week. To say that I am blown away by great they turned out would be an understatement. Chad is truly the master when it comes to perfect execution of sheaths with exotic overlays. These are Elephant, Shrunken Buffalo, & Shark.
Chad’s flagship integral drop-loop sheath is always my first choice of models when handsome overlays are involved to keep the look clean. This model is also my favorite to carry because the ride height on my belt is just right, not too high or low.
The Elephant has a great feel and texture that is hard to fully capture in photos.
The newer batch of Shrunken Buffalo has a unique bubbly texture that gives it a lot of rugged character.
The black Shark is an excellent match for the black scales and acid wash of this DEK3.
Here is another group photo with my original DEK3 added to show the distinction between the older Buffalo and the new.
Thanks again Chad! It was a pleasure working with you to choose the materials and thread colors to match each knife.
