To say it's a comfort knife is a understatement.
That's a beauty, BH, and a great story to go along with it! Those warm beige covers certainly are comforting! I'd love to be a fly on the wall the day you present it back to him! ::super_happy::

Thanks a bunch, Zach and Dog, it's a Russell Green River Works 9" single spear-point EZO Barlow, with burnt orange checkered covers, NS bolsters, and SS liners. When in-hand it feels like it's suppose to be there!

I think something like Delrin, Dog, my materials assessment skills are somewhat lacking, so I might be wrong, mind you. ::shrug::

That's a really beautiful knife, Tony, are you saying the covers are actual leather, or was your comment directed at the jacket? ::shrug:: Thx!

I didn't realize until I took a 2nd look that your last knife posted is from Cold Steel, which seems unusual to me for them, but you can be certain it's a solid quality knife.
