O1 Cold Steel Trailmaster

Thanks, that front piece gives it a little something, of course it isn't needed to just have that swivel belt loop, but why not

The front was wet formed to fit the contours closely, which was a bit of a pain but gives a nice look to it.

Made a swivel belt loop for my sheath, added a front mantle piece for decoration, kind of a pain but it dresses it up a little. The belt loop allows the sheath to swivel so when you go to sit down you can swing it up and out of the way, not dangling loose, but under more control. The retention of the sheath, at least right now, negates having the strap around the handle, that can always be added on later if it is needed.

And for now I'm leaving the bevel as is from the Ken Onion worksharp, at some point I may want to try and grind down the sides to get to a thinner edge, but, that would take a LOT of time and of course, effort on my part

That is some nice looking sheath work. Very impressive!

Very nice I picked up an O1 Natchez from a discount store 2 years ago that was a ebay return...$100 CANADIAN...
I pretty well stole it, they had no idea
Love the sheath mod
I have been beating on an sk5 trail master for 9 years, love it and I spent a long time hand profiling a thinned convex
Picked up a carbon v one but it's still a safe queen
