I've seen two different types of sheaths available for this machete. One has pouches sewn on and the other doesn't. Anyone have an idea of which one is better quality? I would just make my own but considering both types of sheaths are about $10 I think I'll just buy one.

Sorry but at a whole $10, I don't think quality is even an issue.Dave:rolleyes:

True. I kinda figured that. Just thought I'd see if anyone had any experience with either of them. I pulled the trigger on an ebay one that I think will work. I was mainly concerned that both sides of the sheath have rivets since I sharpened the back of my machete and I didn't want it to slice through. I kinda answered my own question in a way. :D

Why did you sharpen the back of your machete?:confused:

Kind of an experiment really. The whole back isn't sharpened, only the front 9 inches or so. When I am clearing out the vines and thorn bushes around my deer stand, The blade often gets tangled in the cutt-offs from swinging and I thought that having a little bit of sharpened blade on both sides might help eliminate that. Like I said, its just an experiment. If it does no discernable good, I'll probably grind it off. I've thought about making a custom machete but I wanted to try a few things out on the cheapy one first. We'll see.
