I love this "City Hunter" by G. Sakai (Seki, Japan) that I recently purchased from SunBladesKnives – another gorgeous Japanese knife indeed. But I really do not like the sheath; the quality of construction and design is especially disappointing. In particular, I found that the curve of the loop lacked harmony.

So I did not have qualms about cutting 35 inches of Paracord to introduce some modifications, in order to make the sheath more versatile, too, because I like to carry my knife in different styles and more or less high on the belt according to my clothes and my occupations of the day.

Here's how it looks:

That is a great idea Jean, and a great knife. I have bought new sheaths for almost all of my user fixed blade knives, I just don't like the ones they come with most of the time. I never thought of modifying one.
