Seeking Input on Sheath Design

Recommended Posts

I have two of these knives from a local maker and want to make a sheath. I made this real quick based on a similar sheath for a folding knife. I'm open for suggestions to improve the design for function and comfort. Thanks, 

Randy

Are them knives what they refer to as a chore knife? 

RK you make some nice stuff! 

If it were me & these were chore/work knives to be used around the farm/ranch. 

I would make sheaths a bit longer & wet form more around the handle. 

So the knife sits a bit deeper in the sheath for more retention. 

They look great to me as is.

 DieselTech,

Thanks for the compliment. 

He calls this a straight trapper. I've used it on anything from leather work to field dressing deer. I also think it could be longer and have some thoughts for other changes. I thought I would get input before I made the next one.

I know you do exceptionally nice stuff. 

It is hard to make a recommendation without the knife in my hand.  If that makes any sense.

But I am curious what others might recommend.
