I need a sheath!

Here's the deal: My favorite fixed blade is the SOG Government Agent. I have never held a more well balanced fixed blade in my life. The handle fits my hand perfectly. I bought it two years ago and it was my first knife to retail over $100. It was my first good knife. I've gotten into all kinds of trouble with mall security with it and got out of trouble once because of it.
I love this knife.

But as I carry it to work every day, i still don't like the sheath. It still feels cheap to me and it doesn't latch in the knife as well as most others do. So I want a custom. Where can I go (preferably online) to get a better sheath? I'm thinking about something like kydex maybe.
Does anyone have any input?

David Brown (Buy Brown Holsters), in Arizona, makes some nice kydex sheaths. I looked at his web-site last night, and I was impressed. He is a member here at BF.

Eric, up in Canada (On/Scene Tactical) also makes an excellent line of kydex sheaths. Eric is also a member here (and a heck of a nice guy).

Locally, here in my home state of Washington, there is Blade-Tech and Survival Sheath Systems, who both make excellent kydex/concealex sheaths.

(Edited 'cause I noticed that I can't spel worth a damn.:D.).
 
No experience first hand with his FB sheaths, but Tom Krein makes an awesome neck sheath for folders. He is also great to deal with as the one, two, THREE current posts to his credit on GB&U will attest. he also makes some sweet knives. Check him out

One thing, no matter who you go with, is that you might be without your blade for a while while the sheathmaker has it (unless the sheathmaker has one on hand to use as a model). This may play a role in who you want to go with.
