mora 780 craftmens sheath??

[jhrule]

So i have a mora craftsmen 780 and i really like it. I carry it as a knife im not scared to break. However the belt attachment on the sheath broke. It snapped at the top when i was putting it on my belt. It broke both of the belt inserts so it wont go on my belt at all. I was wondering if anybody has any way of making a homemade sheath with the plastic sheath that is broken. Or should i just look around for a new sheath

My solution to the same problem, I really like the the 780 (great carving blade...):

You could wetform some leather around the plastic, and then stitch on a new belt attachment.

nice sheath!...however i wanted to keep it more compact

I think that JRS and Onscene Tactical have pre-made sheaths for the 780, might be worth checking into...

pop rivet a belt loop.

I did what Barberfobic suggested with a mora #S2. I attached a dangler in place of the tab and it works great. Just wet form it, sew it up and insert the plastic sheath into the leather. I used a fairly light weight leather also. Very pleased with the results.

Wouldn't the inside of the rivet be hard on the blade?

Ben's has a couple of JRE leather ones that would work if you want to go that route.

I make a sheath for that knife.
