Anybody know where to find a replacement L66 sheath? Thanks Ed
Re: Replacement sheath for L66
sorry but may have to duplicate an original. I was told with many used knives the sheaths are a marriage.
Re: Replacement sheath for L66
I know, just a shot in the dark. Just looking for a useable sheath, not an original. Such a common knife, was hoping somebody had a source, other than full blown custom.
Thanks Ed

Just ordered one. Thanks guys. TripleK leather has a generic sheath in 4,5or6 inch. $36 plus shipping on their sight. $30 with free shipping on Amazon.
Re: Replacement sheath for L66
thanks, looked at the Amazon site. At the bottom it shows many generic sheaths. Probably lot's of difference in thickness and quality. I re-sewed a sheath last week. Should be a market for exact repros of old ones with all the stamping's or names.

The only one I considered was from TripleK. They make holsters and gun belts and similar leather goods. They are a well respected maker. I'll post pictures and review it when it arrives.

Here is the TripleK leather sheath, model 138-4. It's very high quality, heavy and sturdy. Made in USA. The L66 measured 4.25". So I ordered the 5" sheath. It was way to long, in fact it fits the USN MKI DECK KNIFE that I have. So I kept it and ordered a 4" sheath for the Western L66 it is a perfect fit.
