I thought it would be a cool idea to surprise him with nice sheath for the knife as a Christmas gift. Any help would be appreciated, thanks for looking!

Mike,
Check with Muskrat Man. He makes a good quality sheath and he specializes in reproduction-type sheaths.

Thanks Bruce, I have reached out to MM, but not heard back from him yet.Old Hunter wrote: ↑Mon Dec 02, 2019 11:06 am Mike, I agree with Ray, MM will be your best bet for a Western F66 sheath especially if you need it by Christmas. I’ve been looking for an original black one for my Black Beauty for 8 years with no luck. Typical of the sheaths of that era (mine was late 1960’s) they were thin and cheaply made - didn’t hold up well over the years. Bruce
Jim, I dont have the knife available to measure, as it is my brothers knife and I am trying to find him a sheath for it as a Christmas gift. However I believe the overall length is 8 3/4". Here is a pic of the same model knife I grabbed off the internet.thefarside wrote: ↑Mon Dec 02, 2019 5:21 pm Mike,
How long is the blade on your knife? I have a few old sheaths I can look through and send you a photo of what I have.
