That Zermatt sheath looks pretty nice though. Just another excuse to pick up a CT Lite.

The Zermatt also comes in black, so I was also thinking of seeing about getting one and cutting the string out and restitching it with the red, so we'll see. JR

JRFBI refers to a style of holsters used for pistols that have a 15 degree forward cant to make them more comfortable.Most people agree it was made by the Federal Bureau of Investigations Firearms Unit. Some say it was made for comfort, safety or speed. Maybe a combination of these factors. It is accepted that it is in no way faster then a straight drop holster, though I can see an argument for safety and comfort. Also with some firearms it may hide a bit better.
Hey MP since you are into the whole leather thing could you direct me to something I could use to make a Wenger sheath more darker brown?This one.(Image removed from quote.)
Nope not sealed.89804 "natural color"89803 black colorThose are the model numbers, they are made by Wenger.
Pretty sure I saw an actual piece of leather but I did a lot of looking around at sheaths so who knows for sure.If you look in my Wenger question thread in the SAK forum area there were some people who know a lot more about them then I do.
Looks like some kind of mad scientist doing an experiment.
That reminds me I need to soak the dismantled swisschamp.
