Each sheath is wet-molded to a specific blade, so it grips your knife and holds it through a day of riding, hiking, or dressing out an elk. Dale cuts and saddle-stitches it by hand, then burnishes every edge smooth so nothing catches on your clothes. A welt down the spine keeps the blade off the thread, which is how a sheath like this lasts decades instead of seasons.
Tell us the knife — yours or one of Marta Lindgren's from up the North Fork — and Dale fits the sheath to it. He'll tool the beargrass plume or your initials into the face if you ask. It's a small thing made exactly right, which is most of what we sell around here.
