Tightening up a Helle Sheath

[jimh0220]

Just got a great helle knife on trade, with the original Helle Leather sheath. Only problem: the sheath is too loose, and the knife falls out easily. How do I snug this baby up?

Quick fix would be to add a thin piece of leather glued to the inside opening of the sheath. It could be done neatly and hardly noticed.

Any chance for a picture of both the knife and sheath?
Sometimes, depending on the shape of the knife and the kind of retention feature it affords, you can wet the sheath and re-mold it to the knife.
A "great Mora knife" should have a sheath to fit it.

If it's all leather, I would try the wet-the-leather way...if there is an insert in there, I would do the Loosearrow way.

BTW....that IS a fine looking knife.:thumbup:
