Recently I obtained a SARsquatch on the EX, and decided to make a heavier duty sheath for it, this is what I came up with:


A little bit like the Spec-Ops sheath, paracord can be used to attach.


Two slots at the back that webbing can be fed through, large (top) should take a 2" belt, small (botom) a 1" leg strap.


Diamond/ceramic sharpener and a firesteel sit in their pockets. I've put the pockets a bit too high, but I was rushing to have it done before the top layer shrinks (it was still wet) too much and has to be made again.


Holes on the belt strap and along the edge are spaced for a large tek-lok.

The dye was left to look 'dodgy' and uneven, was even thinking of using two tones of brown and considering getting green to camo it.

I'm planning to make a drop loop with a D-ring so it will swivel, so i can move comfortably.

Looking forward to comments and advice on how to improve.
 
Very cool....I think I'm gonna be lazy and try 1 of the newest BRKT bravo sheaths for mine. But mine doesn't look like yours! I see why people buy them and never sell them! Nice score congrats!
 
Wow Elof!!! :eek:
That is a nice piece of leather work!!! :thumbup:

I like the tongue that covers the handle and the 'D" ring idea!
 
That is a pretty rugged looking sheath, it looks like it could handle whatever you throw at it. I like it! :thumbup:
 
Managed to take pics of the drop loop






Might make a shorter extender strap, but as is it just sits where my palm is when standing straight.
 
Excellent work!

That's a great looking sheath for my favorite Busse knife.

How do you like that fire starter? I want to pick one up in bronze.
