As always working with Tai is a pleasure even though it's also a challenge to match his workmanship and ideas. On this one it was a bit harder in some ways since the knife wasn't completed when I got it to make the sheath so I didn't have a real color scheme to work with and winged it (just think like Tai - right! ). We did that to "protect" what would be the final blades finish - still working on an unfinished piece is nice in one way since I don't have to fret so much over even minor scratches (mirror polished blades can be a nightmare).
Anyway here are a couple more pics of the sheath and of the knife while still a WIP __________________ Chuck Burrows Hand Crafted Leather & Frontier Knives dba Wild Rose Trading Co Durango, CO chuck@wrtcleather.com www.wrtcleather.com The beautiful sheaths created for storing the knife elevate the knife one step higher.

Stunning work, both!
I can look at both your works and know exactly who did them. That may be the greatest compliment that I can give you. You stand apart! Alex __________________ Alex Whetsell [======]~~~~~~~> Atlantavirtual.com Atlanta NOC |
