I am a big fan of Bill Bagwell and I have a few and just ordered another HB with stag from him. He speaks of Mike Sastre from River City Sheaths very Highly. I have some of Mike's Kydex sheaths but I really wanted to try one of his Southern Comfort Sheaths for my favorite style of carry. This one is for an Ontario Bagwell a prouduction version of one of Bill's custom Belle's. I removed the studs and plate from the handle of this this knife and gave it an over all sanding making it slightly smaller and then finished the handle with linseed oil. I like the handle much better now and it feels great in the hand. I know Ontario uses stainless on these knives but that is why I by real deal forged piece's from Bill. But for a prouduction piece this is not a bad knife and feels very fast in the hand not as good as the real thing but not bad. Back to Mike's excellent sheath. I am a hugh leather fan but this sheath so far is fantastic very comfortable and ultra fast on the draw. It does not need the static line but I put one on any way just in case but will probale take it off because this knife draws extra slick and is adjusted about perfect. With Mike's excellent quality I might have to send him my new HB for another Southern Comfort:D. thanks again Mike

I use Mikes' SC sheaths on several big knives I carry. Best thing out there for big blades, and more comfortable to carry than my 1911. Mikes' sheaths are the best, I won't use anyone else.
