Those are quite nice indeed Graeme.

I'd had some good luck with a pocket sheath from knives ship free.  It holds my Krein TK4 really well.  And also has a little area for debit/credit cards.  Might try for a pic later.

i know, I'm just pointing out the obvious. Both you guys, Clint And Alexander, make some awesome knives. I do like the drop in sheaths, perfect for the pocket. I have a couple of older German hunting knives where only the blade is covered and they dont stay on so well.

I agree Michael, a good sheath or bladecover is a MUST in a fixed blade. But that's true for all fixed blades and for folders both. So that's kind of a given.

Michael you make a good point which is near and dear to me as well.  The pocket sheath should be form fitted and would have to cover about 80% of the entire knife.  I too make my own sheaths and in the past have made my own holsters.  In the near future I am purchasing a leather sewing machine and just play around with ideas which will come upon me at the most inopportune times.

I guess the key to a good pocket fixed blade is a good blade cover that wont fall off in your pocket.

That's true! You have that little thing. Glad it's working out for you Bob.

I have one of Alexander's pocket carry fixed blades and I really enjoy it. I still carry a slip joint or friction folder also but that little pocket carry does most everything as well or better. I like the strength it has as a lot of friction folders tend to loosen up with tough use, I don't have to worry about it folding up and giving me a cut that I have experienced with the slip joints and frictions. Mine has proven itself with small game, rope, fruits, and other everyday tasks. I really don't run into many issues here  with the larger belt carrys but times are a changin'. Also, that little blade is as much at home in the city as in the country! Less footprint in my pocket than my other pocket carries!

Nice knife and sheath Alexander.  A high ride belt sheath would work as well for jeans and tee shirt with the tail out.  Keep up the good work.
