  1. I had a mine back in 08. Ended up with a stent and a triple bypass. Sixteen years later I'm still kickin' Do the rehab, take the meds listen to the doctors.
  2. The sheaths have been wet molded to that specific knife. Care much be taken when installing/removing the knife as to not cut/damage the leather. I've removed and installed the knives at least 15 times so I know it can be done. The sheath and knife come as package for $155 each. Additionally, knives should never be stored in leather sheaths for extended periods as leather holds moisture and will rust carbon steel knives and may even discolor/stain SS knives. Let's face it SS means "stain less" and not "stain proof". 4.2 MM thick Bohler SS with a Rockwell hardness of 59-60. Each knife is 8 3/4" long with a blade of 4". N690 steel is cobalt-enriched stainless steel manufactured by Bohler, an Austria steel company. This steel is high in carbon and chromium elements with the addition of cobalt for consistency. N690 steel alloy contains high amounts of chromium making it stainless steel. It also has fine grain composition that enables the blade steel to remain sharp for a long time even after exposure to prolonged tough applications. Bohler N690 steel’s ability to withstand stress is a favorite choice for knife makers. It is used to make outdoor knives including, tactical, camping, hunting, and bushcraft knives. 1. Sold to LeftySlade Antiqued treatment on white oak handles with Padauk and G10 accents and liners. Custom mosaic pins and brass lanyard tube. 1.
