Thanks gents. My wife surprised me with it for my upcoming birthday. Evidently her and Gene are in cahoots and have been plotting this for awhile. With any luck I can bloody it on a turkey gobbler this spring season!
Thanks Tim! It came in today and I'm really impressed with the richness of the Westinghouse micarta. The picture really does no justice for the depth and rich color of this particular chunk of micarta. I replaced that hunk of leather lanyard with a nice braided black lanyard that matches the pins and liners. Gene has contoured the sheath and molded it more closely than I've seen from him in the past. Knife was also very very sharp, which was nice. It's a wonderful package that I intend to work the heck out of. I'm blessed and grateful to have a wife of 37 years like mine. She's a keeper... so is the wife.
