Epoxy is cured, surface sanded to 1200 grit. Will hand sand and polish once on the blade. The sheath is going to be all American.

I had plans to paint the sheath Red, White & Blue. But 2 of the 3 colors I ordered were bad, I have never seen paint so thick in my life. So here's the finished knife & sheath. This one won't be around long. Pictures don't do the handle justice, every angle just pops.

This one won't be around long. Pictures don't do the handle justice, every angle just pops. How much was that knife? I had it on the table at this weekends show for $200. I had a few lookers and offered a show special of 190. One guy said he be in touch. But I'm not holding my breath on him. I have to ask what I am as it has a lot of work in it compared to others. The other guy who said he take it if it didn't sell decided to have me build another but with his items embedded in the epoxy.
