It was actually forged after this one:
The customer who got the slab-handled one liked the blade shape of the cord-wrapped one, but decided his commanding officer (for whom he was buying the knife) would rather have the slab handle, and without the false edge to make it a little less aggressive-looking.
I finished up the cord-wrapped one (5 1/4" blade forged from 80CrV2), and it ended up being bought by a tac medic here in Texas. I had to ask what that entailed, and apparently they get called in when there is some kind of SWAT event or other "shots fired" situations.
Per his request I added a Combat Loop (similar to a TekLok, different latching mechanism) for scout carry.
He plans on carrying it as his EDC, and added his RATs tourniquet to the sheath. I love Kydex. :)
