Sharpshooter Sheath Systems Clovis Pouch. It's intended for big folders like a Sebenza, but the mule team knife fits pretty well. It's about 5" long (5.5" if you include the little hump at the top) and 2.5" across the top from outside edge to outside edge. There's a leather welt between the front and back panels and the inside dimension welt edge to welt edge on mine is about 1.75" lying flat.

My knife without any handles fits well (the stuff on my knife is a bit of bicycle inner tube) although I wouldn't want to do somersaults with it as there is no retention aside from friction. I think there is room to accommodate handles, but fit per handle thickness is probably something people will have to report on.
Construction is very good. One possible concern is there is no liner layer inside covering the stitching for the 2" belt loop. (Looks like there is some glue though covering the stitching.) This pouch was intended for folders. You might mess up the stitching with the sharp edge of the knife over time. I suspect you could glue in a strip of leather or plastic if that really is an issue.
The all black version really turns into a shadow on your desk as it's so thin there's nothing much for your eyes to clue in on. I'd recommend the Jerzee-Devil version with the red stitching or the brown version for a little something to feed your eyeballs.

In case your wondering, the T-Shirt says: The only reason for time is so everything doesn't happen at once. That bit of blue seems to help the scanner get the colors right.
All in all, a big improvement over the cardboard.
