Got a message from Von Gruff yesterday stating that my knife I had ordered is finished and ready to ship as soon as payment was received. Well payment was taken care of rather quickly and now I'm eagerly awaiting its arrival. I went with one of his Tahr Hunter models and opted for a horizontal cross draw sheath with a closed top.

Way cool!
 
I like the proportion, not a fan of large knives, but this looks just right, congratulations.
 
He does outstanding work! Very nice-looking knife! I am very happy for you!
 
Beautiful! I own two of his knives, and I'm very happy with them. :)

Excellent! Congratulations on a great knife! I love his knives!! Your knife looks wonderful!
 
Thanks everyone. Is anybody using a horizontal sheath for hunting over here in the states? I decided to try one because I've always been a fan of larger knives (not huge, but bigger than most) and they are a pain when getting in and out of vehicles and would rub on my rifle when sling carrying on my right side. I'm hoping that downsizing a bit and cross draw carrying eliminates those problems.
 
jduckhunter, you won't be disappointed with your new knife. I have a number of Von Gruff's knives, the Tahr Hunter somehow just feels right to me. I got the same style sheath you did. I know for a fact that you will enjoy using it.
 
As happy as you are now, you'll be even happier once you get the knife and see how truly good they are.
 
Appreciate the kind words and the opportunity you all give me to continue developing new directions with this most enjoyable hobby.

I'm unfortunately on a diet. Presently in VA hospital as Agent Orange finally caught up with me. Cancer and I no longer can speak. If all goes well I'll be out of here and back home in Thailand by end of July. Tough road but I'm a tough old guy. I'll make it that hunt.

Nice one there. I guided for mulies and elk for about 10 or so years in northern New Mexico.

Business is the only way to fly. I'm headed to SA August 25. I'm hoping that business isn't an arm and a leg. If you don't mind, what airline and the cost for your trip. Mine will be convoluted. I'll be flying into the states to pick up my 416 Rigby as Thailand doesn't allow firearms (pay no attention to the daily shootings and killings) so I'll have 2 very long trips.
