Horizontal knife sheaths

[strickj]

Are there any sheaths available for larger double edge blades? Specifically looking for 3.5 and 5 inch blades.

All I can find are sheaths for smaller knives.

Help me out knife aficionados!

If you want to have something made, Dwayne Puckett is a great guy to work with and very reasonably priced. He'll make you exactly what you want.

Forgot to add, there is also a guy named Jeff Law who lives right up the road in Lebanon. He does absolutely incredible work. Below is a sheath me made for one of my Busses.

Here's an ongoing thread re sheath makers on SurvivalistBoards. Very first post has a bunch, linked to sites:

I've used Al Welke for Kydex, don't know if he makes a horizontal design or not, but he'll make them for any knife, though you'd have to send him knife of course if it's something he doesn't already make. Know he does TekLok compatible so two of those would do horizontal. Google to see some of his stuff, doesn't operate a website AFAIK.

Any Kydex sheath with the opposing rivet holes can be made into horizontal for belt with just a couple of paracord loops, of course, and that's what a lot of folks do.

There's of course huge ongoing sheath forum on BladeForums you can research:

Hadn't thought of that. Certainly open my options up

I have one of Mike Sastre's sheath's he made for my CRKT Polkowski/Kasper Companion years ago. Mike is at River City Sheaths.

Mike and I discussed the particulars I needed/wanted...the "what", "why", and "how"... prior to his making the sheath. It's an IWB and rides extremely well, good retention, but very fast and positive into use.

Mike is a knowledgeable guy and good people. I couldn't be more pleased with his work.

Concealed?

Difficult to hide a horizontal with a long handle

That said, Mike Sastre does GREAT work with Kydex.

Best fit I have ever seen anyway

Sorry. I was unclear. No. I have/use an IWB for appendix carry, adjustable for angle. Excellent concealment.

I jut meant that Mike is a talented guy and would work with someone on coming up with a sheath that meets their needs.

I agree, Mike's work is excellent.

Does anyone make a good horizontal knife/sheath combo that I could carry on my belt in the small of my back.

[Guest FordMan]

Anyone??

[Mark@Sea]

You pick the knife, I'll make you a sheath.

See what you think about an ESEE Izula with a G Clip or Tek loc.

This is where I purchased my G Clip.

Looks something like this and will then work on a backpack strap too.
