The Mora 105 doesn't come with a sheath. The original handle shape doesn't allow a deep sheath like the 106 because of the front swelling/extra wood there. I actually really liked the 105 as is, but recently decided to modify the handle by removing the front wood and giving the handle a rougher, textured finish. No special reason for doing this other than 'just because'. While perfectly fine before, it's still that way
, just different.
With the new handle shape, I thought about making a sheath for it, something cheap and simple. So a dry piece of birch, part of a branch to be exact, is what I used.
I drilled out the end almost the full length of the branch with a spade bit just slightly smaller in diameter than the narrowest part of the handle, then using a dremel tool started removing wood a bit at a time for the handle to be inserted, ending up with this:
