Just read another thread about horizontal carry and remembered a knife which I had seen 10-15 years ago in a German knife shop. (Most likely not a German knife)
I would be cool to investigate what knife that was.
It was fixed blade
and had a flexible handle
and flexible horizontal sheath.
Not flexible as in floppy but enough to conform to the curvature of the hip when worn around it.
The blade was matte and not shiny at all. The blade shape was very standard no grooves or jimping no tanto no swedge. Wide cheecks of a slicer and not for stabbing. Very simple and more on the thin side and a bit flexible as well.
The blade was 4-5 inches long and the handle also around 4-5.
Sheath and handle were medium to light grey.
The price back then was too high for me so I guess upwards of 100 USD. Most likely around 300 USD.
Thank you for your help.
