Can someone help list the Busse and Kin that will fit the Spec Ops Sheaths?

Combat Master 8"

COmbat Master 6"

Modulars?

I'm actually wonder if one will fit a SWATMANDU
 
I had a SWAT..., the Spec Op CM small, 6" was the size I found recommended. After getting the sheath.. the knife was a bit smaller inside the plastic liner than expected, rattled around more than I thought... needed to remove the liner and heat/shape to knife (tape on the blade was also recommended to give clearance) I never did get that far, others have had good results, I ended up selling knife and sheath before I did this. I do have a RMD w/ Spec Op MC 6' on the way...going to attempt this again
 
I have used the Specops sheathe on many of my knives. Have my basic 8 in one now, and had my TGLB in one before I sold it. They all needed to be heated and fit to the knife. The basic 8 I fit It so that it went in past the talon hole. It's very easy to do. I have also used the sheaths from TOPS, and they aren't bad but the specops sheaths feel more robust to me.
 
The biggest knife I've fitted in an 8" Combat Master (actually the survival I think; they're the same size though) is an HH-FSH:

That took some cutting of the kydex liner too though.

Others I can tell you that fit (although I can't remember off the top of my hear whether 6" or 8") are: SFNO-LE, ASH1-LE, HR. I think the SFNO was the only one that needed the 8" out of those. They all fit with just warming and fitting the kydex, no cutting needed.

I keep my Ratmandu in a sheath that came with a Benchmade CSK....leather and fits great.
 
Just to note: The new Spec Op sheaths use Velcro ( 'bout 2'X2' square, top rear of insert) to hold liner in sheath, they've done away w/ the bolt, either from complaints of edge damage or cost efficiency..or combination of the two..

I have a large Spec OP CM I plan to use for a NMSFNO variant, w/ the Velcro. I finally managed to get the liner out, what a pain in the ass (used a ruler, as suggested by a member)..put it back in reversed as to not engage Velcro, for easier in/out..I think there are two small holes in bottom of liner..I plan to use those or drill hole to secure liner to sheath...not a fan of the Velcro mod.
