Becker knives in JAB/ZK sheaths: any crossover possible?

I'm kinda gettin' interested in the JAB and Zombie Killer sheaths, and am wondering if there is any correlation to any of the Becker line. Anyone know?
 
If you mean will a becker fit in a ZK sheath, I can tell you a BK7 will not. Blade is just too thick. The shorter of the ZK knives might fit Becker sheaths, but really there isn't a whole lot to either of em. The sheath might have a huge pocket, but mine broke the day I got it, draw string (cheap shoelace) pulled right out of the stitching when I tried to cinch it up. I cut the pocket off my warsword sheath and enjoy it much more.
 
Interesting BRL, I'll check to see if my 9 can fit in the War Swords sheath here in a little bit.

I actually like the sheath that comes with the ZK line better than the BK9's, but that could be just me. The pocket is way bigger, and there are two straps. Also, I'm not a big fan of velcro, so the drawstring is better IMHO.

I'll report back in a bit when I can.
 
The BK9 fits in the War swords sheath just fine (and vice versa actually), but of course the snaps don't line up. In fact, I would say my 9 fits in more snugly than the ZK does.

The BK2 also fits, although it is more snug (not hard to get out actually, fits kind of like my USMC does in its leather sheath).

Maybe the BK7 won't fit in the war sword sheath because of the lower guard? All I know is the nine works, and the 2 works.

And if you end up ordering yourself a Potbelly for the sheath... Keep me in mind, I'd love a potbelly :P.

I'll try to post some photos of them both in a few hours so you can see how they fit.
