After a hard day at work I arrived home to find these gems under the doormat <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Skinny ASH & FAT Game Warden

Talk about a man that is a master of his trade. Jeff you have truly outdone yourself mate, I love them! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

The Fat GW will take the place of my SMF as my No.1 hip/survival knife. The Skinny ASH will get stashed away in my pack as backup.
I only ever usually take 2 knives out bush at a time. Lately it's been my SMF & S6. Before that, SnG, Yard Keeper LE & MFS.
The ideal hip knife to me has to be small & compact, with a sheath that hangs no higher than my belt.
I encounter some big hills whilst hunting deer, with falls & slips happening at times. Big knives on the hip just do not gel for me. So that's why I prefer folders or smallish compact knives like the GW.
My GW now has a super strong sheath, which Jeff tailored especially for my use/way.
As you can see the belt-loop hangs flush with the top of the knife handle, & checkout just how secure the handle is. Even with the strap unbuttoned that little porker is not coming out. I even tried to shake it out. Two words, PERFECT DESIGN.

Thanks Jeff, you have made my Christmas all the better. Merry Christmas & a safe New Year to you & your family mate <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

With all this leather goodness I forgot to mention the kydex Skinny ASH sheath. It's also a cracker! Snaps in, very secure & well made.

As much as kydex is so practical, just like a synthetic rifle stock. There is something very special about a piece of leather like this. The smell, workmanship, & it feels right. As does a blued timbered rifle with some grained walnut. Arrhhhh is that the bush calling me, I guess I'm just a traditionalist at heart <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

2 awesome sheaths, congrats. I have been trying to decide on a design for a GW sheath and I love how that one rides on the belt. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

It's good to see that the pants made their way home. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

I'm glad you like'm Tez... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" />

That Fat GW sheath was actually a bit tricky...<img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shocked.gif" alt="" /> I'm not really sure why, maybe because of the extra thick blade on a small knife... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" /> I just glad it turned out good. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

Now... I can't wait to see some shots from your adventures with the new blades! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />



Thanks guys for the complements. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/blush.gif" alt="" />
