Im putting a vehicle kit together.
Once upon a time my car kit rebelled, broke the trunk lock, and ran away. Or something.
Ive used inexpensive components for such kits ever since. No Battle Mistresses need apply. No Emberlits need apply.
For cutting tools I plan:
1. A 12 bow saw carrying wood and hacksaw blades.
2. A Mora All Around.
3. An 18 Latin style machete.
Tramontinas are good and cheap. But they come without sheaths.
I want a good, least-expensive sheath for a 18 Latin style. Mostly it will ride in the kit. It should stand the heat in a trunk in summer. It should belt mount. It should have weep holes.
Wear a sheathed machete and take a tumble. I dont trust a floppy sheath for that. Safe is more important than cheap.
What do you guys recommend?
