Looking to commission a custom sheath for Douk-Douk Le Thiers knife.

[el gigantor]

After several years of searching, I've finally found a slipjoint that feels "just right" in my hand. As it doesn't come with a sheath, I'd like to have one custom made since the knife will definitely be a user. This is the first time I've clicked on the Sheaths & Such portion of BF, and if I'm not posting in the right spot I apologize. Regardless, it'd be great if you fine folks could suggest a craftsman or two I could contact about such a build. Much obliged!

Fantastic! That link is very helpful, and to be honest Gary I had a look through your flickr page and I'm sure I want to avail myself of your services. I realized I made a mistake in my initial post though. I used the wrong term. I'm looking to have a pocket slip made for my Douk-Douk; I don't need a belt loop so I suppose "sheath" was the wrong word. Is this still something you'd be interested in? And is discussion here appropriate, or should I send you a private message?

Slip sheaths are something that I do enjoy making, here's a link to my album

Slip sheaths

New ones will have a squared off bottom of the sheath, no more rounded type ends
