    I have the steel version, as well. I always thought that it worked better than average, in the hose top. I just remove the belt clip and I'm good to go. It must be noted that the size/shape of any given person's leg, and the kind of garters they use, will affect how a sgian lies. For my leg though, with the production sheath, it works and looks quite well.

    I'm the guy on the left. It's pretty easy to the the "Brave Heart" (not real fond of that name). Can anyone recognize the other two gents?

    Wow. That's extremely cool, and the price is incredible.

    Many Thanks!

    Geoff,
    Many thanks for the review! I went to Cold Steel's website and watched the video of their composite products. Looks impressive! This may turn out to be my first sgian! Thanks again!
