Yeah, haha. A buddy of mine who went last year warned of fire ants. Thank you for the wishes! Hayden

The canvas sheath is a rigger made one.  It was on my belt when I made a jump over Normandy drop zone in Fort Bragg years ago.  The knife that was in the sheath decided to make its own jump and parted my company.  I've had it since the early 70's.
