Elk...nay.

Save the elk for antler soup.

Just a thought. Let's go ahead and leave the elk alone- sambar will look better.

We've pretty much got a dialed in knife here boys, save for the sheath. Let's sound off on ideas for leather and after the weekend we'll assess trends and bring it to a vote. Should have this one just about done here soon.

At the 4.5" blade, keep in mind that a simple pouch sheath is an option, matches the stained horsehide beautifully, is a good bit cheaper AND eliminates the four week (or more) waiting period from any of the makers (depending on who).

Amy has an incredible utilitarial design whereas the sheath can be worn:
* Left or right handed (on a belt) upright
.................OR....................
* Left or right handed crossdraw (or straight sideways to be more correct...and it's "pouch-style so no snaps to mess with! I'd vote for that and if we don't vote for that...and I'm the lucky numberer, I'm getting her to make me one anyhoo!
Just sayin', Capt. Chris

I think a floral carved pouch sheath that matches the horse hide would be nice.

Capt. Chris speaks for me...that arrangement sounds like maybe the most versatile you could ask for.

I have had some Kydex sheaths done for that very reason. But no Kydex here please!

Simple pouch sheath.

Will there be embellishment?

I missed my vote for sambar, so sambar.

And Captain’s sheath idea.

Keep it simple for me. If I'm lucky enough, it's going to Mudbone for a no loop pouch sheath with some wicked cool artwork.

One of Amy's unilateral designs, as described by Capt. Chris, sounds perfect.
And......let's wrap this rascal and get 'er done!!
