I love my WWII, but the pointy sheath is a challenge to deal with. If I store it carelessly, the pointy point on the sheath will poke holes in things. For example, I packed it with some stuff in dry bags, and even though the kukri is heavy enough that it should go in the bottom, I had to put it on top of everything and sheath the sheath in an extra towel I didn't need just to keep it from stabbing stuff. Poking holes in dry bags is bad, by the way.
I suppose I could put the kukri in a proper kydex sheath, but that seems like a waste of a very nice hand made leather and wood sheath. What's under the brass "blade" on the point of the sheath? Could I just tear it off to stop the sheath from stabbing everything? Has anybody already solved this problem somehow?
