Thanks Randy , I couldnt get a decent picture of it . My camera battery was low and it would not focus right . It was hard to focus on blade pattern and handle pattern at the same time !!

I am literally drooling with anticipation waiting for this one! :drool:

The problem is going to be dreaming up a sheath that will live up to the knife now. :what!:

Lots of pics when it arrives, promise. :biggrin:

I fully agree Bubba, trading work is fun!!!!!
