SAK Sheath

[harronek]

I put this up over on the Sheath & Leather Forum but thought I'd share it here as well .
Made this for my Electrician , haven't made a sheath with a flap before .

Dang! That is EXCELLENT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :thumbup::thumbup: Really love the trad fasteners....more reliable than snaps and they shout !!!!

Thanks for the enthusiastic response
I've never used those studs before , but I agree they are really cool , and I've still got a few to experiment with .

i'm now envious of both your skill and sheath!

thanks for sharing

That is so much "stealthier" than a big old metal snap or Velcro. I really like the concept. And your workmanship is exquisite. Thanks for sharing.

Elegant and functional.

That was a one of a kind sheath that I made , as an experiment .
I still have it somewhere in my box of bits , but it never got used much .
I don't sell any of my sheaths , but I'm sure a custom maker could make you something similar if you really wanted one .
SAK's are the only knives I make sheaths for these days , and even then I don't make many .

Here is a photo history of my SAK sheaths I've made , most of these pics have been shown before , but not all in one place .

Thanks guys .
I don't think I'll be making anymore SAK sheaths for awhile , my knife tastes have changed over time , I don't find myself carrying SAK's much anymore , and the sheaths I have for them are all I need .
I took me a long time to realise or admit , but pocket clips make small - medium folder sheaths redundant .
The last few pics in my previous post are of pocket clip sheaths , they were a half way attempt to get the ease of a pocket clip and still use my SAK's , but they are a feeble and inefficient way of trying to duplicate a clip mounted on the knife .
I will no longer buy folders now that don't offer the option of a pocket clip . I broke this rule recently with a Gayle Bradley Air , and even though it's a excellent knife , the lack of clip bugs the snot out of me and I won't repeat that mistake again .

Thanks again for the kind words .

Exactly what Jeff said...Just STUNNING work, every single design. I am fortunate to wear one EVERY DAY:thumbup:
