Thread: Sheath for USAF survival knife

USAF survival knives are great for dirty jobs, they're cheap and easy to find. The only problem is the ratty sheath
that's supplied with them. I found a company that carries a killer sheath for these and USMC Ka-Bars too.
Check out the old WW2 snap on the keeper.

Nice looking sheaths, I take it that the 'pocket' in the front is to hold a small hone?

Zippo, Hone, Prophylactics, Travel Size Soap, Half of a Mounds Candy, Club Crackers, Guitar picks anything you might need in a survival mode.

Those are great-looking sheaths, MisterClean-kind of pricey, though. I've still got the USAF survival knife I got as a teenager when I think I paid less than 20 bucks for it; takes a great edge and yeah, I use it for some rough work you wouldn't want to abuse a more expensive knife on.

Nice to know there's a nice sheath available if I ever need one.

It gave me an idea, I'll try to duplicate one for my K-Bar.
