I would love a better sheath

[dougo83]

Ok...I have this Mora knife and would love a better/different sheath. I am thinking about something with a ferro rod loop on it. What do y'all use?

Sorry about the blur...shutter speed or something was a touch out of whack...

doug83, what you want is a kydex from Eric at On Scent Tactical. He goes by Normark on the board, or you can go to his website at http://www.mnsi.net/~nbtnoel/ You have a Clipper design there I do believe (860-MG to be exact). Go to his products page and go down to Frosts of Sweden and you'll find the sheath for Clippers and a photo link. I'm pretty sure he adds firesteel loops as well for a little extra. It will cost more than the knife, but they are pretty in expensive, and he does great work.

Thanks for the heads-up...

Eric (Normark) is a real pleasure to work with! For a clipper - kydex will keep it light and slight.

I tried getting hold of Normark (Eric at Onscene) for probably a month or two, and communication was a bit hard to come by. I think he was probably just a bit swamped or something, but it was something to consider if you want one now.

JeffH at this forum also does some awesome kydex work and I hear he is producing for public sale now.

You could also start makin' your own stuff, leather is fun and easy to get into for not much money.

Spooky...I have def considered doing my own.

I'd say go for it then! Very easy to get started and there are volumes of information online to help you. You could always get a JRE for in the meantime.

I came to the same conclusion in my review of the Mora classic. A really good knife, absolutely great for the price, but a crappy sheath. I figured I could make a leather sheath out of an old broken leather bag I have. I cold cut the plastic sheath and use the end part as a liner.

Hey doug, I had another Kydex maker put two of these together for my kids:

I like the Kydex for the kids as it's a little safer to resheath the knife.
