Man, that's a really neat looking knife! I hsve the same question with the sheath, but the knife looks great! How thick is the edge though, it looks pretty thick.
 
Thank you for the kindness. I have to agree that the sheath came a bit shorter than expected but it does fit very snug.
Haven't had it fall out yet but I'm sure in time a new sheath will be in order.
 
The sheath fit problem would be less if the heel of the blade didn't have that tit sticking out. The heel ( area under the ricasso) should not stick out farther than the edge or it will get in the way of cutting as well as sheathing the blade.
 
Nice job on this one, the handle material looks awsome, nice blade profile too. The only thing that would make it look better is a swedge at the end of the blade, just my 2 cents, thanks for sharing with us.
 
I tend to like grinds that parallel the curve of the edge but that is a very nice knife. Well done.
