hso,
Got it- VERY nice. Neat horizontal sheath design too. Works well for me with the scales, I'd have to say better than a bare steel handle would have. He did the scales in a most attractive fashion- black micarta sort of 'swamped' in the middle, two rivets, polished. And the blade & pommel is blackened too. Very 'quiet' knife. Love that 'apple seed' point. Very stabby. Balances well, feels good in the hand. As much as I like it I may put it back though, we will see. I hope I am never again at a place in life to feel justified in carrying a design like this one (heck, I am too broke down to do such things), but I sure like it (e-vile grin).
Now all I gotta do is keep my wife from seeing it- luckily she's out of town for a few days at a conference... 8^).
Many thanks!
