So I got a ZT0180 at a pretty good discount from a local retailer around where I live, and while I like the knife quite a lot (besides ZT's usual weird edge geometry, which will be remedied shortly), but I have a big issue with the sheath that comes with the knife.
I knew this was going to be an issue honestly, since I have seen the sheath before, and it was honestly the only reason I didn't buy the knife sooner, but once I saw the discounted price, I knew that I could probably get a replacement for the sheath and still not have spent any more than it would have cost me to get the knife new normally.
That being said, I don't really know if I should go and look for someone to make a custom sheath, or if there might be some other alternative sheaths that might fit the knife that are already available out there.
I would prefer leather, but I know that Kydex will generally be a little cheaper. The main thing is that, while I don't plan on routinely EDCing the knife, I would still like to be able to if the need arises, and I MUCH prefer to do that with a leather sheath rather than a Kydex one.
Let me know what you guys think, and if you have any recommendations, I would be glad to hear them!
Note: I'll post the exact specs of the knife later today once I get home.
