I snagged a great deal on a Leatherman sheath through the gear exchange. I bought them for my ST-Ripper, but in typical ST-Ripper fashion, the fit is a little too tight on her.

Those are two amazing knives!!! Looking at the pics, is that an NOe variant?

If I remember right about the ST Ripper the recurve spoils the fit every time, but it sure makes up for it in the looks!

Both of them are actually NO-E Variants. The ST-Ripper was made from some ZT blanks that were found tucked away somewhere (if I recall correctly). It's just a touch longer than the standard NO-E, possibly due to the EU handles. I MAY have sent Skunk some pretty threatening messages to make sure I got this knife... I don't remember, that was when I still drank A LOT of whiskey. Sorry Skunk! The ST-Ripper has traveled to a lot of cool places with me, it's one of three knives that I rotate out on my gear.

The other is also cut from a ZT blank, oddly enough. It's thin and pointy with functional serrations on top. The black paper handles are so nice on that one! Super cool knife and one of the grails of my collection.

That must have a different definition in Australia! Otherwise, I must warn you that I am betrothed to Beef. He's got a very big jealous streak!
