Due to the size and shape of these great little knives ,

the sheaths were always going to be interesting to make ;)

I wanted the sheaths to carry the knives as deep as possible for security /safety sake , but this requires them to be removed with some lanyards, that need to be made, so they will be off to John (HTG)

Belt attachment is currently via small tek-lock , but leather options are under construction .

Wow mate! Those look gorgeous as do the sheaths!

The handles look almost identical to some ACU paracord I have!
If you can wait a couple days I'll pop some in the post and you can tell me whether prefer that or the silver mate!

Personally I can't wait to get my greasy lil mitts on these for a look lmao

It looks an almost perfect match Ru!
The more I look the more I'm convinced!

I'll pop that, some silver and the two types of red I have in an envelope and post em down tomorrow!

What would you use a knife shaped like that for? I don't think I've seen one before!

Thanks for the blades farid and for all the advice;)

Ian, the blades are small and incredibly stout, yet razor sharp , they lend themselves very well to cutting and skiving leather , let alone skinning or feathering a stick ,

but above all youl certainly never break one at 5mm thick tool steel:]
