Inviting quotes for making knife sheath.

[Glydr]

Hello, I have a fixed blade sheath knife that I have had for about 14-15 years, the knife is in great condition still but the sheath is well past its best and is starting to disintegrate.
I have found a company online that will make a tailor fitted sheath for £25 but the whole knife and sheath cost that.
If anyone can knock up a sheath I would be happy to pay them for it if they can do it for a better price than above, and am willing to post them the knife to fit it if need be.

I agree £25 ish for a standard off the shelve clipper sheath, custom made stuff usually costs more.

There are a lot of talented makers on this site, who will all make you something personal to you & your requirements, which will last you for years, and be far better than some mass produced item, and your keeping your money "in house".
