It did not have a sheath, so I made one.

I found little also. On Blade Forums, there is a post where his granddaughter and others that knew him or have knives he made, talked about his work.

Wow! Interesting! Something that really caught my attention, the was one person on there who posted in 2013, I think, that said they have two daggers of Ricks with ser.nos. 005 and 006, with matching leather sheaths. Wait a minute!?! The knife I just posted is ser.no. “006” and has a matching leather sheath, also stamped “006”. I have owned this knife since 2005, so I’m guessing it’s like someone else in that thread stated, the serial number only denotes the sequence number of that TYPE of knife, and may not be a unique number. Either way it appears it’s an earlier production piece than I thought - early 80s maybe? Wow - Curiouser and curiouser.
