Can anyone recommend me a fixed blade knife that comes with a scout carry sheath (Parralel to belt line)?
Not really limited by funds, just something that isn't solely a hunting knife or survival knife.
I bought an ESEE 4 and while it is great knife, a scout carry sheath of good quality is a couple hundred, and I'd rather just see if there's another knife in the same range that already comes with a scout carry sheath before I just buy one for the ESEE.

If you find a leather sling maker (for lever guns), they should be able to make a good one for $80 or so.

wut

The best kydex sheath makers I've seen charge about a $100 at most, and that's for bigass bowie sheaths.

Even leather doesn't go for a couple hundred unless you're using exotic leathers.

Where are you seeing people charge a couple hundred?
>>
why wouldn't you just get the knife you want and then get the sheath you want?

It's not that there aren't cheaper options, it's that I'd prefer to get something from an established leather worker that makes high quality stuff.
I do a lot of work in crawl spaces where scout carry comes in handy and honestly I'm just looking for an excuse to buy another knife.
I have no problem dropping the money on a leather sheath but I don't want to get a nice sheath and fuck it up by crawling around in a crawl space.

Dont know what would be a good knife. Spent my entire life using folders, have quite a few and learned what I liked. I am new to the world of fixed blade knives for the most part, only owned three ever.
And again, rather not spend a bunch of money on a nice sheath just to get it fucked up, when I can hopefully just buy a knife that comes with a shitty sheath that can be scout carried and not feel bad about it.

But where are you seeing established leather sheath makers charging a couple hundred for a knife sheath?

I can understand gun holsters going for that much, but not knife sheaths. I've never seen a knife sheath go for that much money.

I know people will give me shit for suggesting this, but it's a genuinely decent knife all around.

I do scout carry by slipping it in between my belt and the back belt loop, with the clip from the sheath facing out and clipping to the belt loop. Very secure and comfortable.

Any saddle shop can make a leather sheath to your specs. In my area (WNC) it'd run $50 or less.

Then why go with leather at all? Kydex is cheap and easy enough to do that good makers are a diamond dozen. I have no experience with the dudes I'm posting they're just what came up on Google.

Also what about scout carry makes things easier for you? Just curious
