SC500 Scrimshaw Indian With Beaded Sheath

Any information on this one? It doesn't seem to be from the series of Indian-themed 1980's knives. Was there a design like this in the "Cowboys series?

It was called "The Lance" and while not a part of the set actually, is considered as such by most collectors of the "Tribute To Native Americans" set. It was an SFO comissioned by Montgomery Ward.

Thanks Codger! The Lance was my first thought, but the only other example I've seen had a different beaded sheath design. I guess the lance design on this sheath should have given me a clue!
