Hi,
I am the (very) proud new owner of a Western W49 Bowie. What a superb knife, excellent blade shape and heft. What is it about big Bowies?
The sheath is a swing type, also a good piece of design work, unfortunately it is right-handed and I'm a southpaw.
Does anyone know of a high quality custom leatherworker familiar with the W49 who will make a new ambidextrous sheath for this knife? I say familiar with because I would like to avoid sending the knife overseas again as I had enough trouble getting it through U.K. customs to begin with.
As with all things in life I suspect I'm not the only one to have this query.
As ever all help gratefully received.
Regards
Tack
