DCKNIVES Report post Posted March 2, 2010 This was the project I was looking for a swivel frog.My friend and fellow knifemaker Alan Folts calls this his "Weapon of Mass Destruction".The handle is Carbon fiber and is 32" long with the 440C blade 18".Our intent was to allow the scabbard to swivel for easily withdrawing the WMD.The scabbard is inlaid in Caimen,with an Ivory concho and the swivel was built into the frog and locked by a retention strap.I also added a small clip-on baldric.We had alot of fun on this collaboration.Dave The "WMD" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hidepounder Report post Posted March 3, 2010 I'm with Ray, I'm just shocked! The WMD surely gives new meaning to "reach out and touch someone"! Great job on the scabbard by the way, Dave! (is he happily settled in Florida?), LOL!! Bobby Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
abn Report post Posted March 3, 2010 Dave, a beautiful sheath for a beautiful piece. Tell me... Is this a show knife, or is there a practical application for this blade/handle combination? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
