Just finished the sheath for this one. I had never worked with Canvas Micarta before (only paper), and had to learn how to finish it (thanks Mr. Blackwood)!

Specs:
31" OA, 21" blade hollow ground; acid etch finish; green and black micarta.

Very nice. I love the acid etch finish you did and this is one upswept blade that I like. On smaller blades I usually don't care for an usweep to the blade, but on this big blade it looks great.

Mr G!!!!

WHOA.......That's HOT!!!!!! The Micarta looks great, I know you had fun making both sides match

It's like trying to hand draw two Topo maps only a mirror image of each other

Lookin good!

KWM, thanks for the props!

Neil, thanks for the encouragement! I just follwed your easy directions on the Micarta and, ouila! (that's as good as my French gets) I'm pretty happy with the results. Both sides don't have the exact same pattern, but they're close. They are symetrical though. Thanks again for kind words!
