Quick question

Grateful · Oct 17, 2016

Can anyone tell me how well how well a 110 fits in a folding alpha hunter sheath? Is it to loose or an ok fit. Thanks for any info.

I would think it would be a bit of a loose fit

Grateful · Oct 18, 2016

Thats what i was thinkng too. I wouldnt mind if it was a little loose but dont want it to flop around either.

Ok, I just stuffed one in it. The 110 fits snug on the sides but I could not close the snap on the flap. I suppose if I used some mineral oil to relax the leather it would snap closed. DM

Thank you sir. That is very helpful.

I tried it tonight when I got home. Same as what Dave said I personally didn't care for the way it fit but it could be used in a pinch.

Grateful, you're welcome. It was a small effort. DM

One of the nice things about using leather for a sheath material is that there are any number of good holster and sheath makers who can turn one out for you that has nice carving on it. I have several custom sheaths. Some of the cowboy leather makers do beautiful work.

This is very true. I have come close to ordering one from the big auction site a few times. I just always have second thoughts before closing the deal. I guess i need to give one a try tho because i am not very happy with what i currently have.
