My BK9 arrived yesterday. I added a lanyard and took the inner tubes off since these pictures were taken. The inner tubes slipped around the handle as I chopped. The sheath did snap shut easily even with the 2 layers of inner tubes unlike on the stock BK2 sheath. The sheath is not as bad as I had imagined considering the reviews I had read here. I'm going to try the naked grivory handles for now but may upgrade to micarta possibly.

Below are some pictures from pre-stripping to choppy time:
