All Sheaths
Bear Scare sheath for LARGE Blade
Bear Scare sheath for Large Blade… Say what?!!! This was a very unique project. The client in Alaska required a custom sheath capable of a quick draw if necessary and the full protection of a sheepskin lined/Kydex protected housing. The knife, a Zombie Tools Felon, is almost 20″ inches long and a very nice piece. If you can imagine carrying this, it can be quite difficult to get it out of the sheath if you are carrying it in the “Outback” of Alaska. The manufacturer does offer some nice, low rider, sheaths but they are impractical for bush work as a low rider tends to snag on just about everything. If I may digress just a little bit… This...
Read MoreKydex and Sheepskin Lined Sheath
Kydex and Sheepskin Lined Sheath, …say what? I know, here I go again. I was contacted by a customer in California that had just purchased a Busse Combat Sarge 7. Now, as this is a $400.00 plus dollar knife the customer wanted a really nice piece of leather to show it off with, plus a way to keep it very well protected. Hence a combination leather, kydex and sheepskined lined piece of work. The outer leather shell of the sheath is constructed of 4-5 oz. Horsehide that has been dyed a medium cognac brown and is finished with Atom Wax. There is an attached loop for a Swedish Firesteel Army model. The belt loop is designed for a high hip carry on the right side or...
Read MorePCS Twins
Not sure what to call this except “Twins”. In this PCS Twins set, the client wished to have the same (or close) PCS for his high end William Henry Knives, flashlight, lighter, pen and Swiss Army knives. One PCS will be “Office Carry” and one for “Weekend carry”. He will shift out the pen with the lighter depending upon the circumstances. In addition he wished to have a flap covering the Swiss Arny knife as he will be interchanging two different Swiss Army knives depending upon his personal preference for the day (one is thinner than the other). I also carved a “Lannister Lion” on the flap covering the Swiss Army knives. As...
Read MoreSlip Sheath
A Slip Sheath is a simple yet elegant way to show off a knife that you may not carry often. This particular sheath was made for a knife created by Russell Gale, Custom Woodworker in Asheville, NC. Russell contacted me a while back as he was looking for a custom knife sheath maker to create a sheath for a knife he made for a customer in New Jersey. After communicating with the customer this is what we came up with. It is a simple slip sheath made of 3-4 oz. vegetable tanned tooling leather dyed a dark brown. The sheath is lined with red pigskin and the edges have been lightly dyed in order to show off the layering of the blade spacer and filet. I use vegetable tanned...
Read MoreButterfly Knife Sheath’s
If you’re going to carry a Butterfly Knife you really should carry it in something like this. 4-5oz. tooling leather, saturated with neatsfoot oil to keep it supple and protected. The clip is a spring steel holster clip covered in leather. I made this one for a gentlemen in South Florida that likes to jog. He needed it as slim as possible for concealment and designed not to fall out of his pocket or off of his jogging shorts. He also requested that I carve a logo of his choosing into the front side. Base price for this sheath is $135.00 w/o the leather covered clip. I’ll cover it like this for an additional $25.00. As always as it’s custom, any color,...
Read MoreLeather Knife Sleeve for Hartsook Talon2©
Custom Leather Knife Sleeve developed specifically for the Hartsook Talon2©. This sheath was modified and developed for a knife maker friend of mine, Doug Hartsook. Doug is a phenomenal knife maker and his work has come a long way from his days making knives in shop in high school. I have done quite a few sheaths for Doug’s knives and you will find them featured as we move forward with this website. As the Talon2© is only 4.5″ long, this sheath lends itself to an easy belt carry. This particular sheath is fitted with a titanium clip that is unfortunately no longer available (I am in process of developing a Dragonthorn Leatherworks custom titanium clip to...
