Here's a new one headed to "Big Rick" in the UK The sheath has a Beaver tail overlay at the throat with Kangaroo Lace trim and a star concho. Ralph or Rick will have to give the specs on the knife, but it's a big One!
 
Sweet! Love the lace / concho treatment. Ralph did a super nice job on that knife, and snagged a killer piece of wood for the handle.

Paul, your work is exceptional! That sheth compliments the knife perfectly!

BTW, where do you get your beavertail from?

Thanks for posting!

Ted, I bought something over 100 tails from a trapper/purveyor in British Columbia.
these were tanned at Edmondton Tannery. It's a very useful commodity and can be used for everything from inlays to full sheath coverage.

Thanks Paul! I'm hoping to get hold of some soon to use on a couple of sheaths. I love the richness it brings to the sheath. I'll keep scouring the interwebs...
 
:thumbup:What a beautiful sheath Paul! I'm about to send you one myself. I cant wait to see what you do for it.

Good job Bud!:thumbup:
 
Paul,

That is a great sheath to go with Bud's super knife.

Congratulations to Rick for getting a super package.

WOW!! Impressive knife and sheath. Beaver tail is some VERY nice hide, and looks excellent on that sheath.
