i LOVE big knives but to carry them is a BIG problem as well. i have a bowie that weighs a ton and dan near pulls my britches down when i wear it. now bring in Art Vincent. i meet Art a few years ago as he visits New York a few times a year. GREAT guy to be around and listen to! Art does custom leather work and does it EXTREMLY well! he makes a shoulder harness for big knives that is the PERFECT in every way from looks to function. my bowie has a large guard on the hilt and i have never wore it comfortably untill now! i swear i don't even feal it on me as it rides so well. the holster offers many adjustments to fit you and your style. you can even take the sheath of and just wear it on your belt if you so choose. thank you for such fine work my friend!!!!

I had the pleasure of meeting Art at Baltimore this year, and he is indeed a very talented gentleman. Great work and a joy to talk with.

Ken, Did Art tell you that he's been making the knife harness for my big knives for a couple years now? It works great for carrying the big heavy knives. He also makes my "Frontiersman" sheaths for carrying my Shrew hawks.

I borrowed the idea from examples of knife and hawks carrying rigs of early frontiersman and had Art make them for me. The lower belt loop can be used to attach the sheath to the belt which secures it and holds it in place.

I just saw Art at Denton Hill and he had an accident recently and tore his tendon in his thumb and won't be able to work leather for awhile.
