James, that is even better than I had it pictured in my mind. Great work and a very, very nice sheath to boot. This piece will have pride of place in my collection. Can't wait to get it in my hands. Thanks again my friend.

No kidding. No knife is too pretty to use, unless it's a very valuable antique.

YEP. = That size knife is handy for a variety of cooking projects in camp/at home.

Fwiw, my favorite "sheath knife" went the other way. = It started off as a German-made 10" kitchen knife, that I bought at Salvation Army for 2.oo & "re-purposed".
(I shortened & reground the blade to a shape that I liked better, replaced the scales with bois d'arc & made a sheath.)

yours, satx

Well knowing me I am sure it will get used . I got it in the mail yesterday and wow what an edge it has on it. I have a small version of one of lonehunters knifes and it holds an edge really well . This one is prettier in person than it is in the pictures and I am one happy camper with our trade.
Thanks James.
