Hi guys,
I have a real nice blade with a custom leather pouch type sheath for it - but the knife just slides right in and out way to easily - loosely for my liking.
It is a few years old but basically new. The sheath was wet molded, has a welt and is dyed black and has some kind of finish. The welt has two rows of stitching.
With the knife in the sheath, if I PINCH the top of the sheath just beyond the welt towards the knife handle - this is perfect. I can turn the sheath upside down and the knife stays put. The rest of the pouch fits it fine.
Perhaps if the maker had just made the welt WIDER by maybe 1/2" it might be fine.
I would really appreciate your suggestions on what I can do to remedy this loose sheath opening situation.
Thank you all.
