Wow. Custom grip from a custom gripper going in a holster from a custom holster maker whom it will also belong to. Wow

Just curious. My best friend in high school was born in the Austrian Alps. His father was a cabinet maker. He used to tell me about wearing those leather britches as a child. LOL He and I both served in the Marine Corps, but after Vietnam, he came back a different person.

Wow. Crazy story. The lederhosen are actually really comfortable but man do they get cold in alpine winter. Also they are the only legal way to carry a knife in public Vienna.
Here are some Viennese knife laws.
You are not allowed to carry a knife with a fixed blade unless it is the 10-25cm (4-10inches) hunting knife which is parting the lederhosen traditional dress (absolutely ridiculous)
If the blade is a folding blade you are limited to either a quick release system or a locking mechanism but you can’t have both. Also the maximum blade size is 12cm (5inch)
In other words: if you want a good knife wear lederhosen and take a huge 25cm (10inch) hunting knife.
