Where to get a good IWB leather sheath?

Hi. I'm in the market for a well-made black leather IWB sheath for A) my folder and B) my kubaton. If you don't know, IWB stands for "inside the waistband". I want something that will secure itself to my belt, and then fold over the top of my pants, only to rest snugly between my jeans' waistband and myself.
And as I mentioned above, I want it in black leather. Who knows of a good manufacturer and where I can find one of these? Do they even exist? Thanks a bunch ya'll.

I'd agree with Lifter's leather. You could also check out the Busse website for their sheath makers. They have a couple of leather guys if I remember correctly.
 
Do these leather shops that you have collectively mentioned offer an IWB sheath, or would it have to be something custom made? I was really looking for someone that has good quality IWB leather already made and ready for me to order.
 
You might want to buy a William Henry clipcase. They're leather cases with metal clothing clips and will fit some off-brand folders. There's also a guy named Mika (can't remember the URL) who makes pocket holsters and sheaths who may also make IWB stuff. Don't know if the other makers we've mentioned have anything ready for order.
 
Dwayne is making up a black leather IWB for a Howling Rat. Everything he does is custom.

Vadim does nice work at great prices. You can find his site at www.vessleatherworks.com. He does a lot of sheaths for folders. He might just be the man you're looking for. BTW, he's a great guy to deal with.
 
Also worth mentioning Vess is a forum member. You will often find him posting on the Canadian board as he is based in Toronto.
 
After checking out many sheath sources, both leather and kydex, I'll be going to Vadim at Vess. He makes sheaths/works of art. Thanks everybody.
