Got this a while back, I sanded down the gold coating that the blade came with since this is 52100 blade steel and quite sharp still. I also wrapped the handle with cord wrap and sting ray skin underlay, I applied super glue onto the cloth wrap and that made it rock hard, very very tactile grip!
Sheath, I created a leather adapter so that the sheath will swing and can be moved out of your way when you go to sit down. Very handy method of carrying a large blade.
Price shipped in the USA $old payment by US Postal money order or check if I know you, sorry but no paypal.

Copper rivet allows the sheath to swivel but you can still draw the knife out quickly, unlike some of the ring style swivels, this keeps the sheath from folding.

Here is a photo showing how the swivel sheath comes in handy when you sit down, this was before I did the cord wrap, the plain metal handle was way too slick and when you chopped with it you felt ever blow, now, it's much better!
