Awesome knife.
What is man without the beasts? If all the beasts were gone, men would die from great loneliness of spirit, for whatever happens to the beasts also happens to man. All things are connected. Whatever befalls the earth befalls the children of the earth

As far as a sheath goes for that beauty, how about a nice slender distressed leather  belt sheath with fringe and bead work.
 Steve,
 Check out the sheaths with the Winkler knives that Tippit posted in his thread. Somthing like that would look REALLY nice!
I reckon so
