Back Story:
So - there is an odd story here. I originally posted the sheath below for sale - decided to withdraw it - at the same time Troutfisher said he would take it. He asked me to add a loop to it and while I was finishing it up he sold the knife it was for. I offered (he did not ask - he was great) to refund him. There was no reason to have a sheath he wasn't going to use.
So... I have this sheath kicking around...
It's Christmas - and this board has been great to me this year. Time to pay it back.
EDIT!
...and then....
Rick Lowe contacts me and says "Hey man - mind if I tag along?!?!" He wanted to do a give away too - and instead of making another thread and being confusing - we decided to join forces and combine the give away's
Here is a picture of his AWESOME work:
EDIT #2
....and then...
Wildmanh (Heber) contacted me and didn't want to be left out on the ride in Santa's sleigh. When he has his sheath specifics up - I will post them here. But his initial plan is a tooled sheath!
Contest Rules:
I will have a random number generator generate two number on Christmas Eve and the two winners will get the sheaths chosen for. Mine First - then Rick's. In case of two numbers being equadistant to the generated number - I will chose the lower number.
Sheath Details:
Diomedes Industries:
This sheath is made from 6 - 8 ounce leather from Wickett and Craig. It has been carved and stamped and is sealed with Montana Pitch Blend. It is soft and supple. A hardworker with a nice feel. The sheath fits a Fiddleback Arete, Terrasaur, Kephart, or Recluse (or essentially any 4 inch knife with about a 1 to 1.5 inch blade width with ease.
It does not come with a Dangler currently. Let me know if your heart is set on it though. I am sure we can figure something out.
Rick Lowe:
Since my sheaths are specific to each model, I'll do whatever Fiddleback model the winner wishes. The winner can also choose carry option style including dangler.
AND THEN....
Andy was all like BAM sucka's - let me drop some steel on you fools - with the mad thanks for the business and comradarie this year! Thanks to Bamboo for posting THIS beauty!
White Linen Micarta Recluse. Wipe the drool people!
Date of Contest End:
Winners will be drawn Christmas Eve using this site as the random number generator: http://www.random.org/
Merry Fiddleback Christmas to all - and to all a good night!
