American Bench Craft leather goods

Mods, I hope I am not breaking the rules, but is there ready a thread, or does anyone already have experience with a Massachusetts company called American Bench Craft?

THIS is how a leather sheath should be made!

I just received an old, user Victorinox Champion from The Lone Wanderer. It is a great swiss army knife for the backpack, to replace the one I gave away.

But it was encased in the sturdiest, most robust, no nonsense, get-right-to-it leather multitool sheath I have ever had the pleasure to encounter.

Allright?! This is the kind you read about. Or at least the kind you might read about in some of my posts lamenting the crappy leatherman sheaths of today.

Four (yes, that's 4) mm thick of full grain, one-peice leather construction fastened together with big 'rivets.

If this thing comes apart on you, you are probably dead from whatever hit it!

Thank you Lone Wanderer!

An original Super Tool and a Buck 110 are too long for their standard Multi Tool sheath, but I could probably stack two original PST's and slide them in, if you needed 2 PST's for some reason...

However, they do make a Buck 110 and a Super Tool 300 sheath.

I cannot say enough good things about this sheath

I'm going to be giving away one of their sheaths here on MTo, pretty soon.

Good stuff. I'm impressed by the quality of their materials, and the thoughtfulness of their designs.

That's great, Nix

How'd you hear of them?

Shoot.....I can't recall. But I was intrigued by their rivets-only construction.

The one I have (never used) is very nice. I'd look at their stuff again, in a heartbeat.
