sheath for a frost mora clipper

[leon-1]

yes exactly like this

This one is a prototype for the BCUK shop when it reopens. In the end Tony will probably have the last say as to whether it is stocked or not, but I know that they are looking at stocking sheaths for the Frosts Mora series.

Well thats a certainly very nice prototype. I particularly like the fact it isn't wet formed

Well it has potential, there may have to be a couple of minimal changes, but essentialy it will remain a friction fit.

I have been thinking that you could use the D-ring on it if you wished to use it for neck carry.

Sorry leon-b I am not trying to steal your thread

dont worry about it

I found that a small hole in the bottom of the sheath stopped the water collecting.

That has been thought of on this one, the insert between the walls of the sheath leaves a little gap at the tip for water drainage. I'll try to get a few more pics of it if I can and post them when available.

I changed the plastic sheath for a leather one of evilbay as soon as I could!! I found the plastic one to be a bit slack in holdin the knife and the loop thingy was stickin in my belly when worn on a belt

No worries though my mora is my training knife and as I have a bearclaw field knife on order ( not a numbered one ) I have plenty of time to get the most out of a leather sheath that cost £17.99.

Leon, what are you looking for, something along these lines

I know this isn't the clipper, but I haven't got pictures of the one for the clipper, it is basically identical though

How much is it going to retail for Leon? It looks very nice, and I like the loop, it reminds me of my dads' Western Bowie which has the same idea on its' sheath.

I have that exact knife and I have modified the original plastic sheath by cutting off that horrid loop and then, using paracord, I tied a turks head around the sheath. I left long ends and put two holes through the sheath at the top rear, the two ends of the paracord went through and formed a loop. This goes on my belt, or I can neck tie if I want. But it's still horrid!

Any idea when the shop will be up and running? I could do with a BCUK badge or two aswell!!

Spamel,
I agree with you. I have the same knife but hate the sheath. I was about to have a go at a birch version of a sheath but I like the look of this leather one. So, how much and when please?

 

[leon-1]

Hi guys, Tony is working very hard to get the shop up and running as soon as he can (you'll probably be looking at 3 months).

The cost has yet to be sorted out (it isn't a done deal that this one will be stocked yet), but as soon as something is known I'll let you know.

I would like one? If you do a quick straw poll on it you could see if it would be worth stocking them in the shop. omo

Thanks mate it's a good idea, I need to have a little chat with Tone and then I'll probably do it
