Hello all, It's been a while since I've posted any of my work. I love looking on here to see and be inspired by all the wonderful work everyone done. I figured it was time for me to try and show some of my own stuff. These 2 pieces have been my biggest sellers and I'm lucky enough to have regular orders on them. The sheath has gone through an extensive evolution and is from a single piece of leather. The flap and snap was put on the back in thought that if regularly used, over the time flap will soften and hang loosely not getting in the way or possibly being cut. Of course none of these are old enough to have gone through the trials yet.

This is my "Companion" knife. I designed it and get it waterjet cut locally and heat treated by Peter's.
