Custom Kydex for old hunting knife?

I have an old Schrade hunting knife (at least 41 years old, possibly more) that was my father's.

I'd like to have a custom kydex sheath made for it so I can wear it on my belt with a Tek-Lok. If this works out, I have 3 or 4 other knives I'd want sheaths for too.

Can anyone recommend a kydex sheath craftsmen for me to reach out to?

Edit: I guess I need to clarify -- Please tell me who has made a custom Kydex sheath for you that you had a good experience with. I don't want a Rolodex of all the craftsmen, just want to hear about positive experiences and know if you'd recommend someone based on past interaction with them. Thanks.

Azwelke makes fantastic Kydex sheaths. I would guess he would have you mail your knife in so he can form fit it.

I am unsure of his workload though.

You can contact him here on BladeForums or on his website

He a pretty stand up guy too. Regularly visits here, interacts with other members, and hosts giveaways. Good people, good products.

Yeah, I saw that. I guess I need to clarify the intent of my thread? I'm looking for input from other members about who they recommend. I want responses like what MolokaiRider gave me.

I could go to that "Wanted" forum and post a request and get an offer from a craftsmen, but I'd have no idea of their reputation. I'd rather hear from others here about their experiences and who they used first, if at all possible.

Thank you for the feedback, MolokaiRider. I was looking at his website last night, actually...

I didn't make the rules. I was just pointing you to them.
