Looking to get a sheath made for my Jalic Blades Valyrian Steel Catspaw dagger (Arya's Blade). They don't sell one for the knife. I can provide screenshots of all angles and would be willing to ship the knife for a perfect fit.

Appreciate the props, Bill!

I wanna know how much someone is willing to spend on a one off, highly labour intensive, hand made, multi media copy of a copy of a stage prop for a $230 knife that is intended solely for display.
Just really curious. There's no way in hell I'd take on that job myself

You would be surprised. I did a scabbard for the sword "Ice" from the same series. The gentleman paid a pretty good bit more than the sword cost. That thing was a beast by the way. Also working with a coyote pelt with the face still on was nasty. This one would be expensive because of the one off metal work required.
 
I equate it to building a garage, doesn't matter what you park inside, from a Yugo to a Lamborghini, the garage is a garage and it doesn't care what's parked inside, it just has to be well made.
of course you can do extravagant garages ;)

But I've had folks tell me the price is too high as their knife costs a lot less than what I'm asking for just a sheath, most times they will still have a sheath made, other times I've not heard back from them.
It goes like that sometimes...

Without a good to great sheath most blades would sit idle..........For decoration is another ball of wax🤔...

Precisely. The scabbard work required for a 3000 dollar custom sword and a thirty dollar flea market special is the same.
 
I have knives that I’ve sent off for modifications that costed 3X what I paid for the knife. I want what I want. If a customer is willing to pay $10K for a sheath for a knife that costs $1.00 that’s their business. 🤷🏻‍♂️
 
Thanks, unfortunately my area is focused on folding knife sheaths so I wouldn’t be the guy for that project, nice knife though.
