Who makes kydex sheaths for HI khukuris? I am interested in getting an 18" WW2 model but I want a kydex sheath...
Any info for contact and pricing will be greatly appreciated.

I believe Edgeworks make custom kydex sheaths. Probably just www.edgeworks.com, but I'm not sure on that. I also would like to get a kydex sheath for one of my khuks. Maybe if you find out anything interesting you could post results for the rest of us? Do you know of a good custom leather sheath maker?

Thanks.

Sorry, Rob...
Don't know any leather makers.
I spend a lot of time on the Chattahoochee River and leather does not hold up well under those conditions. I prefer either kydex or cordura. If I find a maker, I'll post!

Thanks-
Orion

I guess Chas Clements <gryphons@home.com> will do a great job. He's heavily into blades himself and certainly knows what he's doing...

For leather, Bill has recommended someone numerous times, and says he does great traditional stuff.

Unfortunately, my mind has gone out to lunch and after this morning I think it will be taking a long one.

John Powell might recall. If not, other forumites might remember, or keywords to search under. Certainly when Bill gets back in a couple weeks he'll know.

Rusty the man that does the custom scabbards is Terry Cisco. I think he may be online now as I got an e-mail from him the other day. I tried to call him once, but his line was busy. I replied back that it may be easier to get a hold of me as I am almost always home during the day except for Mon.,Wed.,and Friday mornings.
He lives about 25 minutes or so from me so we will connect one of these days. I understand he also does custom handles like the one I am doing for QL.

I'll save those names for future use. Can't afford a custom sheath at the present moment--too many khuks! But I definitely will be getting one, so thanks for the info.
