Tell Me About These "Custom" Buck Sheaths?

[JNewell]

Here's a pair of interesting sheaths. While I was looking for the sheath for the double-dash 110 FG I bought this afternoon, I ran across these two in the dealer's "old sheath box." One is for a 110, the other for a 102. They are a hoot, are they not???

What do you know about them?

A while back we had a thread about these sheaths. Search for custom sheaths.

Twice in a day, yikes. This time I had tried googling the topic, but I didn't find that thread! I agree with your comments about the leather thickness relative to the 110 version and also with your comment that the fixed blade version works better with the weight of leather used.

The 110 version would be neat with lighter leather.

I've been using one of these sheaths for my 112 for a couple of months now and really like it. At first, it did seem a little bulky, but not anymore. I mostly use it for trail riding and other outdoor stuff. I did give it several coats of oil to loosen the leather and recently, I cut the leather lace short because I was constantly placing my hand on it getting in and out of vehicles.

Another great product from Buck's past! :thumbup:
