Leather Sheath for Backpacker

[Ptman2000]

Does anyone have a good recommendation for a leather sheath for the Backpacker?

Kysex is alright but I’d like to find a nice leather one.

Thx!

I’m thinking about getting an Oak City sheath for my Backpacker. Do you have any pictures of the knife in the sheath?

As I understand it, both sheaths are intended for in-pocket carry with the provided clips, and the Oak City comes with the attachable belt loop for external carry.
I have also been experimenting with an ESEE Molle attachment for external backpack carry, but the holes of the CRK kydex do not match up exactly.

Thanks for the photo. Man, that Oak City sheath looks great! Have you used the belt loop straps yet? That's probably how I'd carry.

Older thread I understand, but thank you for sharing these pictures. I stumbled upon this and it was very helpful. This sheaths look perfect for my Inyoni and backpacker. In the event you are still checking this post, how does the Oak City sheath carry in front pocket? Discrete?

I would not describe the front pocket carry as discreet, as the sheath adds a bit of bulk to the knife, but it is not too bad. You definitely know it is in your pocket!

Did you try one for the Inyoni?
