Got this one done for my friend in Norway's Basic 8.
Thanks for looking!
Mark

Removable dangler, removable retention strap, fully lined. Brown with beeswax finish.

Looks great Mark! The sheaths you made for my TGLB and infindu are holding up very well.
 
Now that's a handsome sheath--excellent work! :thumbup:

Any pics of the edge showing how thick it is?
 
I checked out your site recently, I really like your work. I'm trying to resist the LE version of the ASHBM. If I fail, you're making the sheath. ;)
 
Thanks guys!
Will, the edge is about 7/16", and just under 5/8" at the mouth (I used a double welt first inch or so).
Harry, I can set you up! You must...not...resist...

 
That is.... Ba Ba Ba Ba Ba BADDD to the B-8 Bone...:thumbup:

Really like that construction--plenty heavy-duty but not so thick as to be unnecessarily heavy/bulky. :thumbup:

Great looking sheath for that knife!

Is that keeper strap on a pivot pin at the back, or is it a snap? Removable?
 
Will, thanks! That's a snap. Retention strap is removable, and also will rotate on the snap and pivot out of the way when used.
There is enough retention without the strap that I can lightly shake it upside down and the knife won't fall out. I'll post up a pic in a bit.

Really solid design--thanks again. :thumbup:
 
here's a couple pics of the strap removed/rotated.
Note the retention strap is also lined on the back side (as is the dangler loop)...
