2 questions: Sheath source and knife ID?

[chainring]

Two questions:

Where can I score another quick draw (or similar) sheath for a 1/4 inch 3V Nessmuk? I was fortunate enough to obtain one with Ironwood scales - it's stunning! It didn't have pants, though, so I need to get some. Where is the gettin' place?

And....

I always assumed that my first "1/4 inch 3V Nessmuk" was, well, 1/4 inch 3V steel. But now that I have this Ironwood version that IS marked "3V" and IS 1/4 inch thick, I find myself wondering what the story is on my first one. It's Sambar stag, and came with a Quick Draw leather sheath AND a Kydex sheath. Below is your picture of it before you sold it to the original buyer, who was kind enough to sell it to me. It is NOT marked 3V, and it is WAY thicker than my new one! You remember the details?

Thanks!

It is 3V. I made it before I started marking the different steels.

I don't use any steel besides 3V for the thicker Nessmuks.


Also, note to anyone reading....the next batch of 1/4" thick Nessmuks are the Thicker (oversize 1/4") ones.

Thanks! Yeah, the Sambar version is one thick puppy!

What about the sheaths?

 

[Daniel Koster]

I haven't used that leather guy for a while...but will be doing some more sheaths soon. It's best (given the variety of steel and handle thicknesses) if I have the knife - particularly with the quickdraw version. If interested, let me know.

Thanks!

Dan

are you making kydex sheaths for the 1095 scandi models. I might be interested depending on price.

I can only make drop-loop kydex sheaths for the nessmuk at this time. Email me if you're interested. I would need the knife. Thanks!
