Knife sheaths are generally of three types: Neck Knife, Inside Belt Knife, and Outside Belt Knife. Neck Knives are usually shorter and lighter. Inside Belt Knives-these sheaths have a flap on the front that keeps the sheath from sliding through and falling. The flap is decorated and the part of the sheath that isn't covered by the belt or sash can be decorated, if desired. Outside the Belt Knife Sheath-These sheaths can be made in various ways but the sheath is usually able to be fully quilled and often features a hanging loop attached to the back. The only exception would be if the belt went through a slot and then over the sheath to hold it closer to the body. This is more of a Western style. All of our sheaths have a rawhide or leather liner to prevent cutting of the sinew. Although we do sell knives and sheaths together, most of our sheaths are custom orders. The following samples are an example of colors and patterns that we have used but are just a sampling of the many we have made. If you are ordering a sheath for a knife you already own, there are several ways we can make it easier for both of us. You can either make the liner yourself, or you can send the knife and we will make the liner and either send the knife right back to you (Please include shipping and insurance to ship back early) or ship it with the completed sheath. This assures a proper fitting sheath. Please check back often as we will be adding new styles, designs and color combinations in various sizes.
