Pics of the whole sheath would also be helpful...Front and back please.... Many guys have a style all their own and are immediately recognizable.

I have a couple of sheaths with that makers mark. The maker use to be on the Busse website I believe. For some reason I keep thinking if “ Mountain Mike leather “
I’ll keep rattling it around my brain , I’ll think of it.

Maybe Mike Bartol Leather

This is why, when folks ask about their maker's mark, I always tell them whether leather makers or knife makers, make sure your mark is Googable.

How do you do that?

Well for instance you can look up Horsewright on Google. If I used our logo of me on a horse how do you Google that? Or if I used our cattle brand as a logo. Same deal how does a customer find me? Your work should be marked with something that leads to you through Google or other search engines. Eventually a guy thats been around long enough and has enough work out there will start getting references and sales from previous customers. Somebody sees em at the store and asks about their knife and it says Horsewright on it or the sheath or holster has Horsewright stamped on the back. Folks need to be able to find ya.

A thread over in General making my point for me:

Makers mark is mystifying! (TR? and Eagle/Hawk head?)

Hello all, I had posted this on an Aussie forum, as I have a unique makers mark on a knife that, for the life of me, I can't remember who it belongs to! Unfortunately none of the old hats around there could pin point the maker. If you happen to know who it might be, I would greatly appreciate...
