New Bushcraft/survival Rig.

I've emailed Mike to make sure I can post his info. I will do so as soon as I hear from him
 
While we wait heres what I picked up from him. I don't mean to hijack the thread but I figured I would share some more work from the same maker. I know he made the sheath but I don't know if he made the knife as well.

that looks great. I realy want get my one for my TUSK. Its the one I carry most of the time. I like the Bravo but I'm a fan of a little smaller blade.
 
Heard from Mike today. He advised that his turn around time on custom sheaths is about 2 to 3 weeks.
 
My uncle Mike made that sheath. He owns Grindstone Cutlery in Ft. Wayne and is always putting sick rigs like that together.
 
Orrey45.. He made the knife and sheath and told me to let you know that you can send the rig to him and he can fit the flint loop to your existing sheath with no problem. Send him an email and he'll hook it up.
 
Mikel24 He makes them all by hand one at a time. They all look the same because he's awesome and the design he's currently using is as close to perfect as it gets. Have no worries on his methods or quality. Ask anyone with some of his stuff and they will have nothing but good things to say about the quality of his work. He's always so busy making stuff he has little time to post on the forums but if you have any other questions I'll play middle man for him. Hope this helps...
 
Oh yea, almost forgot... His name is Mike Billman and not Mike Hanzo...The hanzo thing is from the movie Kill Bill... The character Hanzo made scary sharp things and so does my uncle!! lolol
 
Nice sheath.I love the color matched with the knife handle.Green on green makes for a nice woods knife combo.

Thanks dericdesmond! That information is really helpful. Is he going to craft a few more sheats and then sell them on ebay as he used to any time soon?
