Mr. Gutcher will likely be getting some business from me as soon as I turn 21 (I think a Ruger Redhawk/ Mod 14 would go beautifully together on a pistol rig). I am still in the dark as to what all of these things look like, especially the nylon sheath that Randall offers.
I have pretty much decided to go with the Little Bear, but I can't decide on handle configurations. I know that the practical thing would be the black micarta/ nickle silver configuration mentioned earlier (it would match my Mod 2-8, too). Yet I am still drawn toard something more distinctive, perhaps a polished stag or ironwood handle. I believe that I am going to have all of the knives made in stainless, because (users or not) I want my knives to be free extensive rust problems.
One more thing regarding sheaths: are Randall sheaths jump rated? I ahve ehard that NO elather sheaths are allowed in jump-ready units, but the sheath on my Mod 14 is at least as trustworthy as the one on my dad's Recon Tanto. What gives?
