there is a fellah on ebay, from time to time,

by former hater of plastic, Saturday, January 27, 2018, 09:36 (2429 days ago) @ Jhenry

a collector and seller, who also makes duplicate original sheaths, molded same as original, likewise embellished, for only $50 or so, if you wanted to save, or did not trust, the original. And, of course, always, until he retires, good old Harry Savage of non-corro leather and hand stitched heavy dutiness. Some of the laminate is better than others, as they were done by hand, and earlier generally better than later. I would not touch the handle on current laminate handle.

Glad you like the knife. Really really good steel and heat treat when you consider how thin the blade and edge, but yet, almost never see one with a chipped edge. Most modern knives would not dare go so thin for a chopper, unless far lower carbon in a machete.
