Your comments are all very friendly.
The sheath is now ready as well, so soon it will go to its new owner.
I hope it will serve him well for a lifetime.
The leather will get darker over time, I only treated it against durt.
Thank you for your poem Socorro.

Fryslan is great for sailing.
Thank you very much.
The blade-length is 125 mm, total length is 235 mm.
Blade thickness is 5 mm.

He has a salmon scow (oldfashioned salmonfishing boat) and started sailmaking.
So he can use a decent knife.
ATS-34, tapered tang and canvas Micarta scales.

And yes, I do have a Ultratech myself.
Made by Filip de Leeuw aka Deviant blades.
Japanese style cord wraps.
I like them.
3" - perfekte größe um die zeigefingerspitze noch auf die spitze der klinge legen zu können, aber dennoch ne ordentlich nutzbare klinge zu haben.
Genau so.
Pricy indeed aber sehr schon.
