A guy at the local gun range bought a knife at a show. as is all to often the case it came with an unfortunately disappointing sheath. Since it needed a better sheath anyway he wanted me to make a horizontal sheath for it. Also called a scout carry sheath. to make it just a little more complex he also asked if I could make the same sheath fit his buck knife as well.
