Sheath for a Boot Knife

These days it looks old, worn, scarred, beat up, and well used.  Oh, wait, So Do I.

 I sometimes feel the same way. I have a nice collection of pocket knives but I can't carry one without a bloody good reason or I'll be charged with carrying an offensive weapon! Such is the parlous state of laws in Australia.

That boot knife is a great way to carry a knife if you wear boots, it doesn't get in the way but is readily available when needed. Oh, and I didn't mention that I like the stag handle, they just look "right" on a knife.

I love stag handles on knives and guns.  I had a pair of spalted maple grips made from a tree we cut down on our old farm and I seasoned for about two years.  Then I made several knives from the same tree.  They turned out awesome.  They look almost like stag at times.

Later I changed the screws in the maple grips on the gun as I thought they looked better black.

The Gun in the pic is my Match 45.  It's a Springfield Armory Frame and Slide, but nothing else is factory.  The rest is after market match grade built by our PPC Gunsmith back in my Competition days.  Worth every penny.

Ah yes, spalted maple makes beautiful handles! Nicely done.
