Fairbairn Sykes Sheath options

[slikrickabn]

I would like to get a more practical and user friendly sheath for my Fairbairn Sykes commando knife. Any suggestions?

Thanks

Slik, a little more information will probably get you several reposes. Since it is a well known combat dagger type, what exactly do you consider user friendly attributes, and for that matter what is your take on practicality?

My take would be a vertical blade sheath (leather) with either a handle retention strap or an over the guard strap, either affixed to a Sam Browne stud instead of a snap.

Tell us a little more about what you think it should be.

I'm looking something better than the issue sheath, that would fit on a duty style belt- either with a solid leather loop, or maybe a tek lock type fastner. I like the over guard strap with the stud fastner idea...
