Pros: Overall Quality, Durability
Cons: None
Excellent quality, thick and well finished
The sheath was caved-in at the back, but this allowed a nice friction fit, less loose to my very slim Sabatier Jeune 7" Scout Knife I intended it for. With some modification it worked far, far more perfectly what I had any right to hope for... The leather is quite thick and surprisingly good quality (excellent black dye finish), even the snap is very positive, and its snap strap is quite good and supple, with no crackling of the black finish at all. I found the basket weave pattern very good looking, and quite a plus to the overall look of the sheath. The sheath is perfect for the unusually long and narrow (1") blade shape of my Sabatier, and might work well for the broader Kabar. I have nothing but good to say about it: In the way it could be modified, it was as good or even more appropriate than a custom leather sheath given the slimness of my knife: An overall thicker custom leather sheath would actually have looked wrong on such a slim knife...
