Indeed that is a great price on the foot long sheath. Within a couple of dollars as we paid

And normally I might say go for it but here is something to consider. We ran into this when we were having sheaths built by Eagle like the RC5 cordura sheath. The current version being an even better version than what Eagle built still like all these type sheaths have the same weak point. Once you by them that is all you will ever have, ie, that exact configuration of a knife seath. That is why we began a while back moving to the Kydex and molded sheath versions that are actually a platform to which the design configurations are literally endless. We can keep designing and manufacturing pouches, kits, MOLLE platforms, etc, that will all bolt to the same sheath forever. The user is never limited to one configuration.
