Bird and Trout ATS 34 and leather

This is my latest project. I actually made 2 of them for young guy who liked the fillet knife I sold him. Details are as follows:

ATS34 1/8" stock
8" OL
Zebrawood Scales
HT to RC 60

Suggestions, comment welcomed.

Good looking knife and sheath.
Did you heat treat the blade? I just ordered some ATS34 but never have used it, and don't have the ability to cyro so wondering about a recipe.

The sheath is fantastic, is it hand stitched? if so what type of thread, I'd like to do one with nice white stitching.

Thanks
Mark

Nice work Mark. Good looking package.

Love the knife and the sheath they look great.

info

I did the HT myself. I use a homemade gas forge with a single forced air burner fed with propane. I hold at 1900 degrees F. for 15 minutes, then plate quench between 2 1" thick aluminum plates. It was tempered at 275 degrees for 2 hours. It test RC 60 on my tester.

I hand stitched with linen thread after dying.
