I'm in the same boat. Currently alternating between my 2 favorite Winklers the SD2 and the Sweet T. I picket up a Tailored by Cortes sheath, it was what he had on the shelf and not made for the Sweet T but works.
How do you like the winkler leather sheath. When I bought my SD1 that sheath didn’t exist and it came with kydex. I bought the badger claw outfitters leather sheath because it allows the knife to ride a little lower in the pocket
 
I first fell in love with Graham Brothers knives when they started doing their Razel. I saw it at a blade show in 2010 or 2011 and thought it was the coolest design. This is a Graham pocket fixed I used to carry a lot more. Paul Bos heat treated S30V. IMG_7136.jpeg
 
These are my three most-carried pocket fixed blades. Left-to-Right:

•Ben Tendick “Aikuchi” model, 3V steel
•Winkler/FE “Sweet-T” model, 80CrV2 steel
•Caleb Havens of Angler Knives “Dorado” model, CPM-154 steel

One of these things is not like the others, aye? Haha. I do enjoy a good tsukamaki wrapped grip.

The Dorado. Do want.
 
Here is one Quiet Carry sent over to me. It is called “The Wady”…. I typically prefer a folding edc, but this little thing is pretty cool. It is extremely light. I find the size of the sheath works great in one of those lower side pockets you find on a pair of Kuhl pants.

That’s old school cool. My best friends dad worked with John graham for years at McKee foods and had a huge collection of grahams but other wise wasn’t into knives. I’ve been trying for years to buy them off of him. He’s got a 15” kukri he made that I’ve never seen another like it.
 
Picked this up at blade this year. Helm Dauntless v.3 Work knife in Magnacut and lager g11 with the deep carry pocket Kydex. I have never managed to carry a fixed blade for any length of time but this stayed in my pocket for 6 months and is by far the easiest fixed blade to live with for me.

Post a picture of that if you can ever see it again.

McKee foods is the jam. I love little Deborah.
