Fixed Blade Knife Pocket Sheath
Pocket Sheath, everybody needs one! I used to carry a Benchmade Mini AFCK in my right front pocket until I realized that every time I got out of my car it scraped my leather steering wheel. Then I shifted to a pocket sheath with a standard metal clip that didn't do much better. Finally made myself a PCS and just carried my knife in my pocket. Not quite the same… About a two months ago I had a customer contact me about commissioning a pocket sheath for his Bark River PSK fixed blade ( 5.25" short ). He originally wanted a standard pocket clip for the sheath and I recalled the difficulties with my clipped pocket sheaths. I had just purchased some .5" neodymium magnets (you know, the "don't know what I''ll do with these but they're pretty cool" kind of purchase). I communicated with the customer and drew up a few concept designs. He agreed to be an experiment and off we went. The magnets are very secure and are held in place with epoxy and the calfskin (They are solid as a rock). The premise for this piece is that the sheath goes "in" the pocket with the flap folding over the pocket rim and attaching to the inner sheath via the magnet. An added benefit is that the magnets are strong enough not only to secure the sheath in the pocket but as well assist in guiding the knife blade into the proper position in the sheath itself. To withdraw the knife you either grasp the knife handle itself and pull or simply slide the whole sheath out of your pocket. No more worn pockets due to consistent inserting and withdrawing of a knife with a metal pocket clip! This design can be developed for any small fixed blade knife or any pocket knife if you prefer. Various leather types, colors and linings are available. Base price for this piece is $175.00. A bit expensive yes, however, the amount of work that goes into this is quite extensive. If you have any additional ideas or would like one of these custom built for you just let us know… DH https://dragonleather.net

Dragonthorn Leatherworks manufactures custom/bespoke leatherwork, one piece at a time, one stitch at a time. Our pieces are unique and attention to detail is paramount. I specialize in smaller leather items but build just about anything as long as it is important to you. Bags, briefs, cellphone cases, tablet cases, guitar straps, holsters, knife sheaths and such… You may order any of the pieces shown on Maker-Marketplace.com as well as any item shown on my website at https://dragonleather.net. I can make any item as you see it, customize it to your wishes or we can create something completely unique. Take a look at our work, give your ultimate leather dream some thought, then let me know, we'll build something special together.
Dragonthorn Leatherworks has been and remains as one of the premier global custom leather smiths since 1999. We have accomplished this through extreme attention to detail, world class customer service and, obviously, strong knowledge and skill. We are not inexpensive, nor do we rush through a project simply to get one off the bench in order to start another. True custom leatherwork is very unique and more of an art than a craft although both elements are combined in our work. Our communication levels during the construction of a project remain a strong suit of ours and may border on “way too much information”. However, in order to ensure that a customer receives precisely what they wish for it is necessary to communicate on a consistent basis and make you feel part of the team. I invite you to read the column "What is Custom Leatherwork” to better understand what custom leatherwork truly is. The brief article can be found on my website at this web address: https://dragonleather.net/custom-leatherwork/ Additional reviews may be read at https://dragonleather.net/testimonials/
Please feel free to look around the website and enjoy the many items we have developed for clients around the world. Take a read at the testimonials to see what these customers have to say about our work and working with us. Give us a shout if/when you have an idea you’d like to bounce off of us. You may be surprised at what we come up with. Thanks, Dave

For Leather Knife Sheath, Kydex And Sheepskin Lined5.0Dave was fantastic to work with and provided timely communication every step of the way until the sheath was completed. The sheath itself is truly a work of art...Unbelievable craftsmanship - you REALLY do get what you pay for here. A little pricey? yes, but WELL worth it. Liked it so much that I will be working with Dave again soon to make this sheath for another knife. I can only speak for his knife sheaths, but I am sure all his leather work is exceptional - truly a masterclass in design and execution. Thanks again Dave!!
