I am sure this knife will always feel special to the winning bidder because of both the high quality and the great cause behind the making of the knife.

Post by: Roughcountry on May 02, 2011, 12:02:00 AM: The blade is about ready to go back to Lin's

Thought I'd add a couple pics of the sheath.
Back and front. I hand stitched it all, thought I needed to spend more time for the kids.

Lin, Karl and Doug have really done this up right. It's a honor to build the pants for it.

I put a little braid on Karls take down tool. I have a knot to finish and it's on the way back to you lin.

Post by: amar911 on May 02, 2011, 10:07:00 PM: VERY pretty sheath to complete a great package. It is going to be tough to be the high bidder on that knife with all the competition there will be. I think it will come down to the final seconds before we know who will end up with it. You guys have done a great job and should be rightfully proud of yourselves. I want to thank you for devoting your hard work and amazing skills toward such a worthwhile cause.
