I´m not a fan of keychain carry either. I used to have a red MiniChamp on it, until one of the scales broke. It´s green now and I carry it in a belt sheath or in the nice sleeve that came with the 125th anniversary editiion.

Vic's 58mm sheaths are quite something too  :cheers:

Indeed. The brown leather belt sheath fits an MC like a glove. A black leather belt sheath is on my wish list.

I made my own leather keyring sheath for my beloved classic. Simple pouch sheath, wet formed so it fits like a glove and takes almost the whole depth of the knife for security. Makes it easier to use not having it 'attached' to the keyring, but as a pull out tool with nothing attached to it.

The Classic is a perfect companion, but I'm looking into ways to use it off the keychain

Sorry for the two pictures, if a moderator can remove it I can't :think:

Such a great was to carry a 58mm.  Nice sheath.  I also carry my 58mm Manager in a keychain sheath for ease of use.

I keep the Manager on my house keychain at all times ( about 6 years now ).  I keep my minicamp on a ball chain and wear it from time to time.  I'd love to find a sheath like the one I have for my Manager.  Its made in China and I've looked around a bit but so far no luck.

I found my little sheath with Classic at my local flea market.  I was super stoked but traded out the Classic for my Manager by wet forming the sheath.  I tried to make one but it didn't turn out so good.  I quickly looked on the net and yes Etsy results as well as few others but they weren't quite like the one I have.  Mine is really thick leather pretty well stitched.  I should have another go at making my own.  I enjoy the process of making things but lack skills  :rofl:.  I think I'll have another look around since posting my little sheath and seeing CBL51 and pfsantos recently.
