Steve

Great knife, congratulations. A Grigg has always been on my wish list.

Thats a beauty Steve.....

I had the chance to rent this Grigg for a while. One of the best knives I have ever owned. Ken Hurst engraved and Rick Bowles scrim.

That's a looker!!

The guy I bought it from got my number from a mutual friend. He had bought it 30+ years ago. After talkin a bit.... come to find out, he's the dad of a good friend I went to High School with that lived 2 blocks from me in middle/high school in the 70's before I moved to NuAwlins. I hadn't seen him in 40 or so years when his kids were sneaking out at night to party.... and he caught us!!!

Steve, is that a Johnson sheath? I really like the tooling work.

Not sure. Could not find any markings and have not passed Sheath History 101 yet. What do I look for?

Oh no.... that one might have even hit me between the eyes... No markings even close or at all, inside or outside. Stitching however is similar and sheath is of very good quality. Will take/post additional sheath pictures. Back has 2 slits for belt to go through not a single belt loop.

Thanks!!

It's not the original sheath Steve. The Johnson sheaths' sold at the shop along with Walt's knives, had the Randall stamp and knife size on the back. If your knife is Walt's large size (and it looks like it is) there would have been a G 4 stamped on it. Also. No slit back loop.
Best, Capt. Chris
