That is fantastic!  You guys are very proud of the finished product, I am sure.  That should bring a very nice bid.   :clapper:

Great work gentlemen, that truely is one fine knife.  I have really enjoyed following along with the build. I am sure this knife will always feel special to the winning bidder because of both the high quality and the great cause behind the making of the knife.

Good grief............wow!
Security is mostly a superstition. It does not exist in nature, nor do the children of men as a whole experience it. Avoiding danger is no safer in the long run than outright exposure. Life is either a daring adventure, or nothing. TGMM ♥

The blade is about ready to go back to Lin's

Thought I'd add a couple pics of the sheath.
Back and front. I hand stitched it all, thought I needed to spend more time for the kids.

Lin, Karl and Doug have really done this up right. It's a honor to build the pants for it.
