A Cross-Draw Knife Sheath.

[fish]

knocked this one up yesterday for my fish tailed scandi i made earlier in the year.

The leather is veg tanned leather ,i wanted a sheath that is more discreet than a dangler so i can carry my knife when in the field without attracting too much attention.The design is my own but i guess similar to many sutch sheaths.

thanks for looking.

fish: Great looking sheath, very well done.

I played with the idea of a cross draw for a lock-back blade some time ago. I had seen something similar many years ago, and revved up the grey matter (which at my age is a little rough to do) and made this little rig as a prototype. As you can see, it ain't made for a chubby guy, 'cause if you have much of a 'dew-lap' (you know, a belly or love-handles that do lap over your belt) this thing could cause problems. But is was a fun exercise. Mike

I'm going to attempt to make one of these as a Christmas present for my future father in law. I really like the design and I think he'll really like it. I had to come up with an excuse to get my hands on his lockblade so I told him I was going to take some of his knives and sharpen them for him. hahaha

Thanks for the inspiration.
