Esee Izula Wallet/sheath combo

[cknight8]

In dreaming of other ways to daily carry my Esee Izula, I had an idea for a leather wallet/sheath combo. Surely I wasn't the first to think of something like this but after some extensive google searching I'm just not finding anything. Im thinking something along the lines of the long wallet in the link at the bottom but with a sheath on the outside of the wallet for the Izula. Does anyone know of anything like this being made or will I need to go full custom order with a leather shop? Or does anyone know a leather smith that might want to tackle this?

Check out the pocket sheaths over at knivesshipfree.com.  I know they've had some similar designs in the past.

 

I bet we've got a few folks on here who might be able to stand something like this up.

There are at least a couple of guys that could make you something really nice. East Tennessee Patriot and gjohnsoniv come to mind. I'm sure there are others.

PM replied with a second response furthering my first thoughts.

When/if you get something made up please post up some pics.  My Izula is one of the best carry knives I own but I have about wore out the sheath.  I would also be interested.

I have had similar thoughts, looking forward to where this goes.

Well, after exchanging a few PM's about this with the two suggested leathersmiths....I think I've decided to scrap the idea.  I already carry a lot of junk in my wallet, and it's already pretty thick.  I have semi large hands and without the G10 scales on my Izula I hated that knife...never felt secure in any cutting tasks with it until I added the G10.  Adding a thick scaled Izula to an already pretty thick wallet will leave some massive sized tumor that I'd be carrying around.  

 

Many props to gjohnsoniv and East_TN_Patriot for their willingness to listen to my thoughts and offer their advice and willingness to jump on this project.  For it to work out well though I think I'd end up with a wallet that was way to big (thickness) or a knife I'd never use...
