Wow! Interesting! Thanks for sharing!! Any issue when drawing? Meaning do you ever pull the whole sheath out?If anyone is looking for a cool pocket sheath/slip for a pocket knife- MKM makes a really nice one that has a magnetic loop to go over your pocket. Just got one today and it is slick- very nicely made and fits quite a variety of knives. Shown here with a Buck Saunter 250.View attachment 3006610View attachment 3006614
I just got it today, so I played around with different knives in it (Puma German stockman, Buck 301, Buck 055, Saunter, Case med Stockman, large Stockman, Sowbelly, large Trapper). They all fit!Wow!

Thank you for the thoughtful reply! Will have to try one, as the sweatshirt/jacket possibilities is right where my head went!I just got it today, so I played around with different knives in it (Puma German stockman, Buck 301, Buck 055, Saunter, Case med Stockman, large Stockman, Sowbelly, large Trapper). They all fit!
The leather allows for larger profiles to fit, but being new it has not stretched out. The Buck 301, 055, Saunter with fob, and Puma are able to extract with the slip staying attached to the kangaroo pouch pocket of my hoodie. My Trapper has a clip so it is a little larger. I am waiting on a Kershaw Federalist to show up which will have a fob as well. I think the slip will break in to whichever knife I decide to carry in it most.
The Horsewright slip that attaches to a belt or belt-loop is awesome, but I wanted to try this out for keeping the blade in a set position, or in a shirt/hoodie/jacket pocket. Could also wear the slip on outside if doing a chore to have quicker access to it.
Nothing says Christmas like push daggers.
Pretty darn clean grinding there!With Christmas approaching it's time for some push daggers. My first tight radius hollow swedge. I am now even more amazed at Mark's grinds.

[sung in Dean Martin's voice...]
Oh the weapons outside are frightful
But Richard's daggers are just delightful
And though they make a bunch of great big holes
Let them flow, let them flow, let them flow
Demko USA 3V Freereign arrived today. Super nice and a heck of a deal imo.View attachment 3009805
Pretty great. It is not squishy at all, and texturing is only on the sides. Size and contour is great. The exposed tang at pommel is just long enough to smash/scrape something without catching on a swinging arm if worn on side.Been looking at these. How's the handle feel?
