Custom Sheath Recommendations?

The Quiet Man · Apr 15, 2009

Does anyone have any recommendations for PDX local or regional custom sheath makers? I am interested in an IWB sheath for a medium (4 1/8 inch blade) size fixed blade knife. I prefer leather but would be open to Kydex.
Thank you.

http://www.okuden.net/ This guy does good Kydex work, he's in WA. You could ask him about IWB, don't know if he does them.

Thanks Gouki. I did look at Survival Sheath and liked what I saw. However, they didn't appear to do IWB loops on their belt sheaths - and that's what I want for my relativly small fixed blade. I ended up ordering a Kydex from Bruce Good at www.redhillsheaths.com over in Nevada just today. The price was certainly right, and he and his wife are very friendly and helpful. Hopefully, the sheath quality will be excellent also. I do appreciate your response with an obviously top notch Kydex recommendation.

I received my custom sheath from Red Hill Sheaths. Excellent quality and customer service. I highly recommend them. The knife "snaps" in place and doesn't have a chance of getting away without your permission.

I'd post a picture but they have many on their website that do a better job than I would with the camera.
