Mike, if you haven't already started on that sheath, I'll be glad to make one. I know you've already put a lot of work into the project, I've been looking for somewhere to squeeze myself in for a contribution as Tom was a good friend of mine.

Do I send the possibles bag I made to Pat or somebody else? I have finished it, and am ready to send it on.  It is made from a Canadian deer hide and some well used harness leather. I hate to send it cause I like it.

That knife is a real beauty.  I really like that contrasting handle.

David, the knife is beautiful!  8)
 Steve, I'll have some scraps from the hide Jeff has sent me when I get the quiver cut out if you want to wait a bit on the sheath you can incorporate it into the sheath.
Thanks TJ, send it on to me. PM me for my mailing address.
EVERYONE...please take pic of yourself with your contribution, in high res and e-mail them to me.
