That's a beauty Robert. I really like the way the natural Micarta looks.
 
Hehe, sorry :D Awesome knife though, and Robert does excellent work :thumbup:
 
Robert,
That blade shape looks like a very good user. Striking knife!
For someone who doesn't make sheaths you do OK.
 
Thanks Doc,

Last I heard, the customer had received the knife and was using it to cut up some stuff to put on the Bar-B-Que grille.

Sheaths ain't really "my-thang", but they are part of the total package. Maybe I can get better at it some day. I am pretty sure that I could improve my skills if only I could spend some quality time with folks like Sandy, Paul Long, or a number of other master leather craftsmen.

And it worked great.

The blade's got some great patina on it now too.

I showed it off at a hammer-in yesterday and folks seemed really impressed with it.

:thumbup:
