Does the sheath cold steel makes fit it? The machete is listed as 19in blade and the sheath is 24in so...

It does fit but I went with a different sheath just because the blade is heavy and the point can easily stick through the matierial. Also as a tip. I cut down on the handle and used paracord wrapped around it for easier use. Thats just something to consider. Overall It's a great machete.

Yes, as will a 19 ft trailer fit under a 24 ft clearance bridge... LOL. Sheath does the job. Not stellar, but good for the price.

I don't know. I used the cardborad that came on the sword and a baseball bag as my sheath. i used the cardborad as a sheath and add some electrical tape to make the cardbroad stounger. I then put the sword with the cardbroad on the blade in a Baseball Tote Bag(get one that like a back pack or has a back starp) in the part were you would put a baseball bat and carry the sword that way.

Sheath fits it just fine. It is adequate, not as good as a kydex sheath, but it serves the purpose.

No it's actually closer to around 38" all total but the blade is 27" if it's in the sheath THEN it's 40". The sheath has about 1 to 2 extra inches to keep it from sticking the point into the sheath, I hope that helps answer your question.

the sheath works fine for holding the machete, but its a little difficult to carry, i like the sheaths that hang from your belt. that is my personal preference

sorry, i don't have the cold steel srk, but the "1216" is an outstanding sheath...........

Yes, I should think so. But you might want a longer machete. This one is really meant for fighting.

Length. This Machete (the 6144) is an 18" Machete, while the 6145 is a 24" Machete.

Mine came with a small sheath that just covers the blade but it works quite well and is light like the axe. If you want another one it would fit into a regular sized hatchet sheath (you can find leather ones around for pretty reasonable).

it will fit but let me tell you the sheath is really cheap. it has a staple in it connecting the loop to the back of the sheath...when I took the knife out and then attempted to return it back to the sheath it got pushed on an angle and slit the sheath open... i damn near cut my hand open....i replace the sheath with one I found in a pawn shop.

It would not release the blade that came with it .I think it was a 7 ". I had to pull the whole thing apart to get the blade out . Its still in pieces .Very disappointing .

Nope, it's a fixed blade, solid 5160 steel. It weighs a ton. I love mine though, and the sheath is workable.

Not sure if I can answer ya on that. I had an 18" sword in sheath and it fit perfectly.

You say the blade is 22 inches long. SO this is not the Katana which has a 31 inch blade ?

Hello. The blade by itself is 19 and a half inches. The handle by itself is 7 and a half inches & the entire blade with the handle is 2ft 3 inches. Hope this helps. It's a very nice sword for the price.

Per page 57 of the official Cold Steel 2014 Catalog the handle is 5", the blade is 7" and overall is 12". Amazing that the description has 3" handle + 7" blade = 12".

It was bought for a friend whose comment was "it's awesome." Texted her about size of blade and she says she has no idea - maybe 4". I'll try and get more information for you in a day or two. Sorry I couldn't be of more help.

No, these guys are missing out not making a sheath for this machete...I bought the compatible nylon sheath.
