Is anyone making and selling a decent sheath for the Fiskers X5 hatchet? Leather or Kydex but reasonably priced. A belt loop would be nice. Thanks for any info you can offer up.

Ask Kiah, click on his subforum link in my sig.:thumbup:

He does EXCELLENT kydex work, and I have a kydex sheath from him for the 14" Fiskars hatchet. He does belt loops too. Heres one he made for the new Fiskars hatchet (X7, I believe).

New Fiskars Kydex pattern.

  • Retention has been adjusted for harder release (Will now require the thumb to engage release and lock).
  • Edge catching has been eliminated.
  • Small leveling tab added to line up lock with worn down edge.
  • Attachment section added for belt/pack carry.
  • Poll unhindered.
  • Probably something else I'm forgetting.

Pictured with optional quick release drop loop*. A plate attached to webbing can be added for other attachment options or the sheath can be drilled for such. Flush with the belt carry is not recommended as the sheath needs to turn a bit to be released.
*(faked for the pic because I didn't feel like sewing when the prototype was made)

Introductory price is $25 for the sheath + $5 for drop loop + $5 shipping. May increase that soon. Depends on how much time ends up going into them.
