Replacment Kbar sheath
I have a friend that is an old Saltdog Viet-vet Marine who still carrys his issued Kbar for camp knife. I seen the poor poor shape the sheath was in, holes in it rotting apart.(They were never made that well to begin with and 2.5 years jungle didnt help)
Anyway at a military service rifle shoot which happened to be on Marine Corp birthday last Nov. I snuck his Kbar out and made a tracing of the well worn blade. This is what I came up with for the Sarge. First one like this of its kind that I have made. When he asked what he owed me I told him " you already paid",I finally found a way to make a Gunny have nothing to say. Hopefully this sheath will last him longer then the last one. __________________ Romey Cowboy inc Keep a light rein, a foot on each side and a faraway look http://www.highcountryknives.com Last edited by sdcb27; 10-19-2010 at 11:46 AM. |
