Each sheath is individually handcrafted for the best retention, strength, and quality.  Because each sheath is handcrafted not mass-produced by machine, please expect minor variances in each sheath.

Any belt loop attachment added to this sheath must have the Offset Platform.  This adds greater strength and durability to the foldover sheath.  

Firesteel Attachment options:

Our ferrocerium firesteel rods are 5/16″ diameter by 3.2″ long.  A great way to always have fire with you.  Just scrape it with a piece of hard steel such as the back of your knife to emit long lasting sparks.  This is not a friction fit firesteel attachment.  A KYDEX® band around the top of the firesteel holds a shock cord loop to wrap around the attachment to hold the firesteel securely in your sheath as it wears down.  The attachment is removable. 

Choose whether to mount the firesteel on the side of the sheath or across the top.

 

Colors:

Black, Coyote Brown, and Olive Drab are the standard colors that are available at no extra charge.

We do have over 30 colors available for you to choose from.  Addition cost applies for custom colors. 

When choosing a camo pattern remember that while most of them come in .093 KYDEX®, a few of the not as common camo patterns only come in .080 thick KYDEX®. 

 

The retention on this sheath is great - nice and tight with a smooth draw.  Each sheath is individually tested for the best retention by shaking upside down.  You will have no worries of your knife falling out during normal use. This tight retention would make it difficult to remove the sheath if it weren't for our special thumb break design that allows for an easy draw.  (Disclaimer: the knife will come out if forcibly whipped.  If it didn't you wouldn't be able to draw it smoothly.  But the force it takes to whip the knife out of the sheath does not typically ocur during normal use.) 

We specifically choose to use .093 thick KYDEX® instead of the .080 thick KYDEX® that many others use.  This provides a stronger, more rigid sheath with less flex and a consistent, reliable retention.  (Please note that a few of the not as common camo colors only come in .080 thick KYDEX®.  We compensate for this by using a complimentary solid color KYDEX® in .093 on the back.)

The blade rub in this sheath is minimal.  Before molding each sheath, the knife is meticulously wraped with several layers of tape (specifically on the blade) to provide the extra space needed to prevent the dulling of your knife.

There is a tiny 1/8" drain hole on the back of the sheath to let moisture escape and is helpful when you have to wash dirt out of your sheath.  (If you would rather not have this drain hole, please mention so in the comment box on the checkout page.)

All the edges are buffed for a smooth, professionally finished look that also helps to seal the edges by melting them together.

 

Sheath Only! Knife not included.
