Paul Long is missed in his retirement.The shiv in my collection deserves to be displayed. I came by this embossed piece of leather and some quarters awn white oak and made this display case for it.
All my favorites... Leather, wood, iron, more leather, and ironwood.

Beautifully done and I agree w/ Richard, Paul’s sheaths are a step above and will be missed. If you don’t mind, what is the inlay material on your Shiv sheath and where were your DIW scales made ? Great stuff there man !The shiv in my collection deserves to be displayed. I came by this embossed piece of leather and some quarters awn white oak and made this display case for it.
All my favorites... Leather, wood, iron, more leather, and ironwood.

Yep. The sheath will come out, but the knife is trapped.That is awesome!
Do you slide the shelf out to remove the sheath and shiv?
(If so that's even more cool)

Your “ little demon” went from ‘lil demon to “THICKK ‘Lil Demon” from the 1st pic to the 3rd. Good to see I’m not the only one that changes knives as often as our pretty ladies change their outfits !First of three hay deliveries dropped off before last week's storms. Have been working this little demon hard on the farm.
