Well....so far our new artisan member has ignored a moderator's very polite suggestion. And my question is: if the libertariat is basically a rectangle, why does your custom sheath have a rounded bottom? Square peg, round hole, and all that? And why the deep cut out in front? High speed draw?
To my knowledge it is not a limited edition. Expat can answer it further or correct me if he chooses.
What i should have said was yes they are limited and you should buy a crate of them now before they run out. That statement likely would be Expat approved. Maybe. Pretty sure. Kind of.
The round bottom is a design choice so sharp corners don’t gouge your leg. Several places suggest a limited run for the Libertariat...https://loadoutroom.com/thearmsguide/expat-libertariat/
Guys, I fell in love with this knife like the rest of you and searched high and low for a leather sheath that would fit. With no luck, I made my own. I decided to share with others. The time and materials it takes to make one of these by hand justifies the price. It is a simple, yet rugged, design that highlights the use of thick 9oz. leather and waxed thread saddle stitching. The cutout allows a smoother draw, and the fit and contour to the Libertariat blade is excellent and tight.
I'll be a Canadian bushman's uncle. That article does say limited. Ain't that some crap. Well, looks like I done went and beat the collector value clean out of mine.
Eh, I'd say it's only limited edition if they don't make a second run of it. 500 units is the minimum order quantity with Imacasa these days, and 550 is within the range of variance for overruns.
I took Black5’s advice and made a flat bottom sheath, simpler design. I like this better, so thanks for the advice! https://www.ebay.com/itm/254271626172
If anyone here has ever desired a leather sheath for the Libertariat, what characteristics would you want to see?
