Hey folks. Anyone know a good sheath-maker? I'd like a nice leather one for this Wharncliffe, 3 1/8" blade. It was intended to live in a neck sheath.
EDIT: Happily just found a Duluth, MN sheathmaker who made this, which is the look I think I want… May have to visit them..

got my stropman today and was a nice "little" piece. Did the trick wonderfully on honing the edge of my small sebbie that is now CRAZY sharp. Thank you for the recommendation DougNg

My best friends son makes some superb sheaths (and knives)….

G, I'd be interested in chatting with them if you could line that up. Leather is the preference, hopefully with sinew stitching.

As per Doug's recommendation, I ordered a Spyderco Native 5 from Howes Knife shop. I was super excited he had one in stock for $120 because no one else did. Woke up to a refund and an email saying he doesn't ship locking knives to NY state. Fuck.
Well, I asked if I could order again and have it shipped to D666 in New Jersey. Jim Howes said that was totally fine. So I ordered again. Got another email from him saying he was actually out of stock. He was super embarrassed but he went above and beyond in regards to customer service. He's sending me a Spyderco Flat Ground Delica free of charge. Highly recommend buying from him.

G, I'll be shipping to George soon, thanks for the hook up!
Coffee bag micarta grips? Snowy must have made em!
Tang gracefully tapers, couldn't capture it well but a nice knife in the hand with a wicked skull crusher. I think the blade needs jimping though. Any ideas?

My fatherland, Australia, has ridiculous 'safety' policies on knife use and knife carry. Along the lines of anyone over 16 who is carrying a knife can be fined on the spot for $1000, or issued with a subpoena and face a fine of up to $14,000, which of course gets worse… If you are within 20 metres from a pub or bar the fine doubles in all aspects... Oh, did i mention that any knife that can be opened with one hand is completely illegal, and considered a lethal device? No, not a tool, a weapon...
Despite this, I still get kicks out of my Spyderco Delica 4 FFG at home!!

Ivo Sturzenegger is a nice guy and known to the knife community. He has CRK, ZT, Hinderers and many more. last time i asked for the xm18 3.5 he had a waiting period of 4 months. I have now a zt 561 hinderer i found in a zurich knife shop so i am done for the moment.
Get in touch with Ivo and check his page out. They are mentioned as international dealers on Rick Hinderers webpage. -
