not a sheath problem.  i made a kydex sheath with an antler frog, and it's great.

i was carrying it under an adjustment strap on my buttpack, for the 1st, and last, time.

sure appreciate y'all, though.

and no, i didn't sleep much.  waiting for daylight.

got to thinking overnight that for that big knife to hit the ground without me noticing, it had to be in a rough patch.

went to the thickest patch i hunted through.

sure enough!

Congrats, again, Sledge.  That would definately make my day!

Ordered the shoulder rig for mine from Ron.  Looking forward to receiving knife and rig so that I can try it out!

rcorbitt-

you're gonna love it.  i've spent 4 times as much, but never, ever owned a better blade.

roger-

 your concern was most welcome, and very kindly received.

y'all, along with ray, steeled my resolve to find it.

pretty good bunch hereabouts...

thanks.

We've got a new version of the LaClair Bowie. This is the "Fighter", it will have a double guard instead of a single guard. The Classic Bowie will still be available. The Fighter isn't on the web site yet but I'm taking orders for it.
