What a knife sheath is
A sheath is the cover that holds a blade safely when you are not using it. Leather, nylon and hard plastic are the usual materials, and each has its own feel. A good sheath keeps the edge sharp, stops accidents and lets you carry a knife on a belt or in a pack.
What's on this page
Only one item here is a standalone sheath, the United Cutlery Black Ronin Triple Bolt Thrower Knife Sheath in nylon. The rest are knives sold with their own sheath, which is often the easiest way to get a good fit.
The Elk Ridge Hunting Knife with Leather Sheath is a classic outdoor choice, and the Full Tang Combat Knife with Sheath is the lowest priced. The United Cutlery Expendables Bowie Knife with Sheath is the showiest, and the Carbon Steel Gurkha Service Kukri with Sheath and 2 Knives adds two small extras.
How to choose a sheath
Match the sheath to the knife and to how you carry it. Leather looks classic and molds to the blade over time, while nylon is lighter and shrugs off rain. Check that the knife seats firmly and does not rattle, and look at whether the sheath has a belt loop or a strap.
Prices here run from $17.97 to $119.97, so there is a fit for most budgets. If you need a sheath for a knife you already own, read the product page carefully, because fit depends on blade shape. You can also browse the wider knives collection for more options.
Care
Keep leather sheaths dry and wipe off dirt. Never store a wet knife inside a sheath, because moisture can cause rust on the blade.
If a leather sheath gets stiff, a little leather conditioner brings it back. Nylon sheaths can be rinsed with mild soap and left to air dry, which keeps the stitching strong and the fabric clean.
Sheath materials and fit
A sheath keeps the edge protected, keeps the blade from poking through a pocket and gives you a safe way to carry a knife. Leather looks classic and molds to the knife over time, while nylon is light and shrugs off water and dirt.
A good sheath should hold the knife firmly without being so tight that it is hard to draw. Check the belt loop or strap, and make sure the sheath is made for the blade shape you own, since a poor fit wears out both the knife and the sheath.
