Great styling, Dave. I really like that because it DOES NOT look like every other folder sheath.

The colors match up beautifully between the knife and the sheath. Nice job!

Dave, I know we tend to get a bit gushy over the work of our friends and fellow craftsman here, but this is one seriously wonderful piece. Paul is absolutely right, you've created a uniquely beautiful sheath -- congratulations buddy
I looked up Larry Pridgeon's web page (http://www.pridgencustomknives.com/intro.htm) to see some of his other work. Another example of a maker that I'd not heard of, but who's making some great looking knives .

Mike

Great sheath, Dave, my son! Also a great looking knife!

Our friend Texasjack (Rick Hare) of The Woodlands, TX is, at this moment, experiencing the unwelcome attentions of hurricane IKE. Hoope evcerything is OK----

Dave.
Beautiful sheath work! I like the deviation from the norm as well.
Think I saw that knife at the Blade (or one very similar on Larry's table). Even played with it a bit. Definitely not a "pocket" knife, unless you are Mr. Greenjeans. Leans more toward that So. American goucho "cricket" in size.
Of course Larry makes nice knives, he's a Georgia boy and a member of the Georgia Guild.
