Title: New Crossdraw Sheath Style.. (for me anyway)
Post by: just_a_hunter on January 12, 2016, 06:21:00 PM

Here is a first draft of a left hand, forward cant, cross draw sheath I put together over the last while. I couldn't figure out how to run a stich line in the stamping and make it look good so I used the two brass rivets to tighten things up. I'm happy with how it turned out and it defiantly holds tight. It could also be used for right hand scout carry.

The knife has Spalted Pecan scales. I'm having a hard time putting this one in the mail.

Thanks for looking,

Great Work.  If you make one of these again, I wouldn't mind a  picture of how it looks carried.

Thank you all very much.

I will make one of these again and will get a picture of it being carried.

Looks excellent to me. For those that haven't used a cross carry sheath; I got one a couple of years ago for my fixed blade. It has the same positioning (angle) as this one, and couldn't be more comfortable, reliable, or practical. Never gets in the way at all, drawing the blade is effortless. I usually forget I have the knife on my belt when I come in from the woods. That good.
