Hard to say without a maker's mark, but that looks like Mashed Cat's work. The little indentation for retention in the first hole in the handle and the long holes look familiar.
 
I couldn't pinpoint it, so i figured if i post it here, someone might recognize it... maybe the maker
 
Oh yeah, Okuden is the one I'm forgetting.

Mashed Cat is a bit different, but that's the only one that came to my mind. Okuden is definitely more correct here. Mashed Cat's openings are flush with the handle; this one is flared a bit. On top of that, the blade profile on Mashed Cat's sheaths is more pronounced and abrupt; this one's is smoothed.
 
Looks too thin to be Okuden...based on the 2 sword sheaths I have from Brian. Mine don't show the outline of the sword from the outside. Mine also don't come to a point at the bottom, but rather are tapered until "squared" off before the point.
 
My $ is on Okuden. I think Brian marks his sheaths like this. Show the back already.

These are both from Okuden. Unless he changed his style on the sword sheaths recently, I dunno...
Maker's mark is on the left sheath in hand. Both do have a drain hole (not shown in pic).

Not me

does not look like;

Okuden
On Scene Tactical (Normark)
Mashed Cat
Stealnut
or Glock Crazed

maybe a one off from someone who made it for themselves ?
 
The two pics are two different sheaths belonging to two different people. One belongs to Liu Kang the other belongs To Jox on bf. I already messages him to ask who made it. He has not replied

This is a mystery to me and I want to know lol

Since there are at least 2 of them it is likely a kydex bender made them. They look very well made

I'm thinking this one looks like a DIY kydex bender. The shiny part where the handle tube is located is due to overheating of the kydex. I'm not sure of the reputable makers I know of would sell a flawed sheath given that their reputation on the line with every sheath they produce. Now, don't get me wrong... it looks like a perfectly functional sheath.

I've made my own kydex for years, and sometimes the beer makes me goof things up like that. :o

EDIT TO ADD: Looks like the second one is better made... which makes me think the makers learning curve has accelerated. :thumbup:
