hard to read a dry sense of humor over the interwebs..
And the answer is.....YES! Just checked and my B.O.B. fits into my 16 sheath quite snugly, although I can't snap the bottom strap. The B.O.B. is a little thicker and a shade longer. But the B.O.B. sheath is pretty nice kydex with a firesteel loop. You getting a B.O.B. or selling a sheath?Hey warrior (or anyone else) will a tops bob knife fit in a Becker cordura sheath? Of any size, I recall you posting one up and I know you gots some beckers to check it against
I ask because a guy just started a thread about it in general..
I plan to, yes. Been having back trouble keeping me out of work for a couple of weeks which might affect travel, but I'm getting an MRI Fri so Ill know better by the weekend, I hope. Really wanting to test it out, got that and the 16 at ~ the same time and haven't done much playing with either yet. I'd really like to try making and using a bowdrill with the B.O.B., as I've got some custom wood scales I'll be working on a and wondering if it would be a good idea to incorporate a socket in them. Hopefully I'll have it all sorted out a month from now
but am definitely looking forward to being there and bringing it.

I think a lot if people aren't using it (the shango notch) correctly; the ferro rod that comes with the knife is three lobed, two rods are magnesium and the third is the ferro, I've yet to use it but I have seen it used on YouTube and it works as well as a squared knife spine which means you don't have to strip the knife or carry a striker. IMO the knife is really nice even without the "value adds"; great micarta handle shape that feels great and lets you easily choke up on the blade, kydex sheath and firesteel loop with firesteel makes it a good value (again IMO, got mine used) too. I'm planning to test it and my 16 out soon.
Yeah, I'm aware of how to use it. I haven't used it, but it seems to be the general concensus. I love the knife though, it's one of my favs. Plus, as a bonus, the 5" handle fits my hand. That was one of the big selling points for me. The first thing I did, was to take the chain and whistle off, and replace it with much quieter paracord.
