That is a look that I like. It has very clean joints with different materials. Note the un-interrupted reflection down the length of the handle. Very nice work.

Very Nice. Love the contrasting materials that also manage to flow together.

Beautiful knife and sheath. Does the sheath have a wooden liner, or do you do the leather tooling with only the knife in the sheath?

Thanks Rebecca,

The sheat has no wodden liner, instead I have attatched a pice of wood on the blade like this:



It is a kind of last fastned with double sided tape. The leather is a wetformed halft tanned leather that schrinks and becomes very hard when it is dry. The leather is tooled during the drying process and when the sheat is dry the last is removed.
