I Know alot of folks on here use machetes and after seeing som pics of Picts awesome setups had some questions about where to acquire some..Just wanted to give a heads up. I was Just exchanging emails with Dan over at JRE..He said anyone looking for a leather machete sheat should contact him. They are great to deal with and I plan on contacting him very soon myself
 
I would be definitely interested in one of those. Hmm. Thanks for the heads up.
 
he didn't mention cost.. Dan over at JRE is a straight shooter though. We where talking about something else and I just tacke a suggestion for leather tram and ontario sheath production on the end of an email he said I should send anyone looking his way...
 
Just heard back, there's the regular style like his knife blade ones and also
a new style where just the bottom is enclosed.
(similar to these but longer in the back, so its bare steel for all but 4 inches or so.)

you can see where theres no stiching it's left open for a quick draw.
The original style I wanted with a firesteel loop would run me 65 USD plus 7.50 for shipping usps, so more to me in Canada.
His stuff is first rate but I am going to think about it, and maybe see if any of the new completed ones pop up.
 
So what was the approximate cost? Who is JRE? Maybe you can provide a link to a website or email address.
 
Thank you. I missed the USD part and only saw shipping. But I understand now, you're in Canada.
 
here's my latest JRE sheath....thats my Aurora in there!

jre makes quality products and dan (the one of the head honchos over there) is a first class righteous dude!!! quick to respond to communications, and a real pleasure to deal with.
 
He did indeed reply fast, and seemed eager to please us machete fans. He seemed to really take pride in what he does. I have two of his sheaths on my barkies, and they are really amazing.
 
Here is my sheath for my $6.00 Tramontina. I think Rainwalker outdid himself on this one. I have it hanging on my bookcase. It is the best art I have. :D
