Do you have any items in Stock, ready to ship?

We now have a section of in stock items! Everything in this section is available, and will ship within 1-2 business days.

Our items are all made by hand. We do not mass produce anything, and every item has been designed, tested, and created by us. A lot of time and effort has gone into every item we offer, and we do our best to make sure that everything that leaves our shop lives up to our standards and hopefully yours.

Can you make a sheath for a knife other than the ones offered here?

We only offer a few different sheath options, but we operate out of a large brick & mortar cutlery store, so there's a chance we have the knife you're looking for. Contact us to set up a custom order.

Do your holsters meet IDPA regulations?

All of our belt holsters meet IDPA regulations, but our shoulder holsters do not.

Are your leather sheaths lined with Kydex?

To put in bluntly, if your leather sheath does what it's supposed to do, you shouldn't need to put a different sheath inside of it. Our leather sheaths function very well being made out of leather, and our kydex sheaths work very well without a leather lining.

Does the knife come with the sheath?

No. Each item is for the sheath/scabbard/holster itself, no knives, swords, or guns are included with any purchase.

We occasionally update/improve the design of some items, so it is possible that the photos on some listings might not be entirely up to date.

Highlights

Materials: leather, latigo, cowhide, vegtan, vegetable tanned, full grain, full grained, steel, brass, beeswax, handstitched, bridle, tacticool

This is a handmade leather sheath for the Benchmade 140/141 Nimravus or 167/169 Protagonist knives.

The sheath is hand stitched out of 8-10 ounce Latigo cowhide, unless the natural color is chosen, in which case it will be made out of 8-10 ounce vegetable tanned cowhide. It is available as a vertical or horizontal (scout style) sheath.

The sheath will fit either styles of knife, though the Protagonist is slightly smaller, so it will fit deeper into the sheath than the Nimravus. Also, the sheath will fit both the spear point or Tanto versions of each knife.

We offer both silver and black snaps. Let us know in the order notes when ordering what color you would like. If you do not note your preference we will give you the snap that bests suits the color of your sheath (black with black, silver with brown etc.)

As always, customization is available, feel free to message me with any ideas you have.

And obviously, the knives pictured are not included with the sheath.

*This listing is for the sheath only, no knife is included with purchase.

This is a really well made sheath and I'm very impressed by it. I have a 25 year old Nimravus that I recently ordered a new kydex sheath for and it didn't fit properly I'm guessing because of just changes in design over the years but this sheath has significantly more tolerance and it fits perfectly.
