FAQ
Can I carry a knife with a sheath?
Yes, you can (and honestly should) carry a knife with a sheath. Fixed-blade knives, especially, should be carried in sheaths not only to protect the blade but also to protect yourself from injuries. Just make sure you order the right sheath for your specific blade. Our 8-inch knife sheath is perfect for our AK 8 blades, but the AK 6.5 sheaths would not fit a blade that size.
What makes a good knife sheath?
A good knife sheath, like our 8-inch Kydex knife sheaths, should be made of a high-quality material like Kydex or leather. These materials aren’t easy for your knife to damage or cut its way through, which makes it safer for you to carry. The sheath should also offer a tight but comfortable fit to secure a knife.
Is a Kydex sheath better than a leather one?
Leather is a classic choice, but there are plenty of people who prefer Kydex. Ultimately, it’s a matter of personal preference. Both are durable, but since Kydex is made of a thermoplastic, it is typically much easier to clean – especially if you choose to take it on a hunting trip. Consider both options while sifting through our hunting knife sheaths for sale.
