Gator skin and stag handled bowies go together like peanut butter and jelly.
Very cool Lin.

How does that pin lock sheath work? I've looked at it on Kenny's web site but don't get how the retention pin works.

I had the good fortune to hold this beast of a knife this morning. Stunning knife. The drop in the stag fits like my hand and tastes perfectly. The knife is, as are all Lin's knives that I have seen, outstanding.

The sheath is art in it's own right. It is all a knife sheath should be. Very well crafted and built for durability with elegance.

I know there will be a VERY happy new owner. Thanks for letting me see this one today Lin.

Thank you Matt. Coming from you, that's a compliment indeed. You have made some of the most awesome bowies and choppers in existence.

yeah everyone is cuaght up in the really long clip, recurvey kinda Bowies... me included,  but the classic shorter clip, minimal arch, no recurve classic Bowie shape blade is still my favourite.... and this one nails it.
