Like to match the tooling on this Scabbard

[DEADEYE]

Sodapop, I agree with you that the line you pointed to looks grooved, but look at the very bottom of the pic of the scabbard that Deadeye posted: see how it seems to be raised (rather than grooved) as it curves around toward the back... The line seems to be higher than the sunbursts, which leads me to speculate that it was made with a beader blade, rather than a groover. Really, the design could be made several different ways, each of them equally nice.

That's what I was thinking too. Looks beeaded. Anyone have a pic of the beader blade tool?

Deadeye, if you look under tandy's ceramic swivel knife blades, there is a beader blade shown, although it is not listed as a beader blade... it is a blade with two cutting edges. I have a Henley beader that I like much better (I don't care for any of the ceramic blades- I just think they have too much drag for my liking).

Found it! Thanks Whine wine. Do they still make the Henley Beader anymore?

Yes, they do. Contact Cathy Schlim at cschlim@yahoo.com. I know she isn't going to do this again for a while (she did 2 separate orders for us here, and she's definitely burned out from it, but she could get you the actual web address & updated prices [- the web prices are outdated, btw on the website]). Nice, good knives, nice, good blades. I know for sure that Rawhide, on this site, also has Henley blades & knives. Perhaps he could fill you in on updated info. There are others on this site who also have their blades & knives, but I can't, for the life of me, think of who they are...Good luck.
