Well,
I showed this BK9 to you guys not to long ago, it has the "clipless" tip. Well, I bought it without a sheath, and its been laying around with no pants on, and it started to get weird around here.... like being Bladites roommate or something.;)
Anyways,
The welt is 9 OZ veggie tan, and the sides are 7 oz oil tan, all contact cement construction and saddle stitched. Overall, I am really happy with the fit, I can turn it upside down, and it won't easily slide out, and since its a dangler (sorry, I didn't download the back shot) I don't think I am gonna put a keeper on it.
I did try my Kabar in it, and its a bit looser, which makes sense, the Camillus were a bit thicker.
OK, here it is.

Looks good! I usually either make the sheath go a bit higher or put a strap on it. But a 9 is a big knife to lose so you should be good. :D looks great though!
