SOG Bowie style sheath

Recommended Posts

That is a VERY nice piece of work.

Two thoughts: The rivets are unnecessary, and might even shorten the life of the sheath. 

Also, if you reverse the  side that the safety strap sits on, it can be popped off with your thumb without having to shift your grip on the handle.

Thanks Malabar. I appreciate your observations. I am also of the mind that rivets are unnecessary in a well stitched sheath but added them to more closely mirror the original SOG sheaths from the Vietnam era. The original sheath also has the strap coming in from the left side. There are advantages and disadvantages that's true but at least I won't accidentally cut it off this way :)
