I just bought a knife and custom sheath from a Bladeforum member named Bill Ahearn and he is Duramax on the forum. I got this Busse TGLB Forsaken model and the sheath is from Ahearn. It is very high quality and I contacted him about making sheath for the CS Tanto. He can do it but needs a Tanto as a pattern. I can send him one to use. I was wondering if you and I can come up with a design / designs that works for both of us we can save time by having him make several at a time. I mentioned this to him and told him I would get back to him after the holidays.
So if this sounds good to you, I would like to know what you want in a sheath for your CS Tanto? Do you want it to be just like the originals or manybe something different? I am OK with either or both. I was thinking of maybe a inside the waistband that draws from the right side with the edge forward. Are you right handed? What do you think about this idea?
I am going to take some pictures of sheaths that I have and send them to you so we can talk about different designs. You can email me at vjb dot knife1 at gmail dot com
Here is a picture of the sheath he made for the TGLB.

Duramax messaged me back and said that he has a CS Master Tanto and can use it to make a sheath so I asked him some of the same questions I asked you about designs. Original copy vs something new and asked if he had any suggestions as well. I will keep you informed of any contacts I have with him. Feel free to contact him yourself and if you want to and let him know that you are the guy I told him about, who may also be interested in this project.
