My leatherworking extrordinare is already working on a couple projects for me, I'm thinking of asking her about doing some Gerber MK II repro sheaths. We can get the resin knives easily enough, but the sheaths are another story...

If I could impose on a brother Marine to post pics with their original sheath w/ a ruler for specs, I'd mucho appreciate it!!

Do you mean the leather sheath, or the cordura sheath? I believe the one hudson had used a leather sheath.

Can anyone else corroborate this?

She can make the leather sheath.

If you need more, just specify what of and I'll get some taken:D

Just found this thread - any news on this? I'd love one too (although it'd depend on the price)

Sounds good FB! I'm not sure what other pics will be needed yet. I'll check w/ Cat.

Luinsar, you're more than welcome bro to get in onthis!
