Like the title states, I am looking for options for a leather sheath for the LC. Can anyone recommend a maker who has the LC on hand and has made some pants for it so I won't have to send mine off? If you have had someone make a sheath for your LC, I would love to see pics if possible. Lastly, do you prefer dangler or belt loop option for a knife this size?

Thanks in advance!
 
I don't know of someone who makes a leather sheath for the LC, but I know that the sheath I have for this Busse BME works quite well. Maybe a maker could slightly modify that pattern to best accommodate the LC. I have a Chuddy Bear sheath for a different knife and it is incredibly well-done.



I've also belt carried the LC in that Kydex with a dangler and it's light enough to not be bothersome... at least for me.
 
I have asked my Forum Friend Grogimus to come up with some leather patterns for the LCs which we both luckily scored yesterday. He is making some kickarse leather sheath for FK already but he is not a fully blossomed business which means that he does offer ready-t0-go sheaths as of yet. I think he floated a righty sheath for an FK on one of the threads from yesterday and to p*mp him further, what you get from him is akin to a dear friend making you a very high quality "shoe". It won't be quite as fancy as a Gucci but he uses top grain leather, dyes and makes it like he's making it for himself. I doubt if he's making much $ on his stuff so I wish that he'd become more entrepreneurial by asking what his products deserve!

Second entry by zmbhntr shows two from Mark Condos. I don't have that particular sheath (yet!) but I do have another by him for a Fiddleback that is very impressive. Absolute top notch craftmanship and he was a pleasure to work with.

Thanks for that, I was actually just about to mention Mark. :) I have several leather sheath's from him and they are all wearing very well.
 
I have all my leather done by Rednose Leather. He's on Instagram and does phenomenal work for very reasonable prices.
 
Any leather workers here have a LC and able to make sheaths with it? While I love Mark Condos' work, he is not taking any further orders until May. Anyone know of any other of the leather sheath makers that have a LC off hand?
 
I have one sheath ready to go, well 2 but one is spoken for. I'll put it in the sale area above and mark it as being on hold, no worries if it doesn't tickle your fancy though.

Looking forward to receiving both an LC and an EDC sheath from The GrogMeister :thumbup:

Here is a photo of my FK-Grog sheath:

Other users have also reported that the above sized sheath also fits many of the Survive! Knives patterns, plus some BUSSE and RAT however as always, YMMV!
