With the big sheath.
This knife will fit in the front phone/light pocket of the 5.11 pants.

Okay, I admit, I started to cut this tree in half with the Tactical Folder, and decided that it was going to take too long, and probably blister the heck out of my hand.
So I cheated, and broke out my beater Yarborough/GB Knife to finish the job.
The GB Knife did the trick, but would no longer pop the hair off my arm when complete, so I need to sharpen it before commencing any more cutting demonstrations.
I used my good Y Knife for the photos, but there is nothing wrong with the GB Knife, other than some pine sap/resin on the blade.
This took a little while. I am not a professional logger.

It does blend in very well with the Tiger Stripe, much better, in fact than in piney woods.

TR, you didn't mention the comment that Mr.H made out at Mackall about his designs last too long, so he wasn't selling as many knives, so he came up with the "Camo" idea in hopes that people would lay them down in the woods and LOOSE THEM !!!

Would it be blasphemy to lay that knife against a bottle of Booker's?
