I’m not sure what happened? (The fixed blade thread)

[Sharp & Fiery]

I used to be a “just folding knife” guy, with only a couple fixed blades for hunting purposes.

Then…

It happened…

I don’t know how or why…but I’m drawn to fixed blades. Good marketing? Naw…I started making sheaths! That’s gotta be it.

Here is a thread to post all your wonderful fixed blades and their beautiful leather pants.



*This knife and sheath made by Miro*

*I appreciate all well done leather sheaths so my posts will not only feature my sheaths, but any that I own from other very talented makers*

That Redmeadow Coffin handle knife is beautiful!

Thanks, it's one of my most prized for sure! It's the Faro Bowie, and he had 3 similar blades of different lengths...this is the longest at 6 1/2". He hasn't made the other 2 yet.

Pretty nice sir, here's my Bradford G3 in Magnacut, while the sheath is kydex, the adapter I made to carry it horizontally is leather, something that I came up with a while back and works great, easy to remove while still on the belt and as easy to slip back on and snap in place later.

copper fasteners attach it to the sheath with two snaps above for the leather to wrap around your belt and then snap down

It's a full flat ground blade, but I took my sharpening stones and ground in mirror polished swedges on each side, and one of my bobtail fobs to aid in drawing the knife using a wide diamond knot

Very cool, Gary.

I’ve done the same sort of thing but without the snaps for nice snug fit.
