I agree the scabbard appears to have been worked on. It's a nice looking set still.

Nice knife - the scabbard would most likely have been refurbished by Paul at Lakesi detrader.

This is the same as others he has done.

Here's another example currently for sale from him - same hanger.

Good eye Russ. Appears to be his work indeed.

I wish people would stop messing with items.

Yes, true, but in this case, it's only the scabbard which may not have had a strap and another scabbard will not be too difficult to find. In my experience, Paul always discloses any work he has carried out on an item, and this one is fairly obvious to most.
