Can anyone recommend a sheath or case for this particular cleaver?

None ready made; I made one out of leatherette; using nylon thread and overcast stitch. It's been over a year and it is holding up.

I've found that it's relatively easy to make a saya type guard for knives that don't fit in a block. If you follow this http://imgur.com/a/f6QNS you'll end up with a pretty sturdy cover.

I would recommend a Messermeister knife edge guard about 8" in length....say an 8" chefs knife guard.

you can fold a piece of paper, put it over the blade, then put rubber bands over it to hold it in place

The easiest way to go is with a Spec Ops, which will also give you a nice 4 inch pouch for shapener, ferro, and a few small survival tins. A custom kydex sheath is cheap if you do it yourself and have already invested in the rivit tool, heat gun and bag of rivets. Otherwise, just go with the short SpecOps.

This is the only information I have for this sheath. It fits large size case folding knives.

Try this - Tandy Leather Large Knife Sheath Kit 44123-00 Or you could always have a Kydex sheath made up.

I bought this with the zytel sheath, which I like. Very light, very sturdy. I put an extra loop of Velcro around the lock tab on the sheath to make it hold a little better. I figured you could always get a custom sheath later, but I think I'm good with this one. IMHO, not as plasticky as the kydex option.

Also if you don't like the nylon/leather sheath, you can purchase the Surge Nylon Sheath sku#LT934890 (also fits Super Tool 300, and the Core) at swissknifeshop.com for $6.50 includes shipping. It has a back pocket for the Super Tool/Surge/Core tool bit set, and same 2 sided pockets for a small flash light and smaller items.

I dont hate the sheath enough to look for an alternative. It has a plastic liner, and a pouch big enough for a blastmatch and a Swiss army pocket tool/knife. It could have come with something better than a velcro fastener. But the knife is a superb design.

I got lucky and got one of the old ones with the silver on the outside, although the case-wrapper-sheath is black and had me worried there for a bit. The manufacturer says he is changing them over on a rolling basis. He should make a different SKU number for such an important change. And Amazon should enforce that.

I didn't see anything online. The original can be repaired or used to make a new one (saddle repair or cobblers would have the equipment or better yet there are people who can fashion custom fit sheaths out of Kydex, which is very desirable. Hope this helps.

The sheath on it is fairly proprietary. I don't know that you would be able to buy anything that would fit this

My knife came with a kryton hard plastic type sheath, similar to kydex. There could be some minimal flopping I guess, I haven't had any issue with it, but you could also lash it to your leg or back pack with paracord to keep that from occurring.

I am not certain, I have not seen a sheath for this knife, but I haven't looked either.

Mine fits great. I wouldn't change anything, except possibly the use of velcro. Functionally though, the sheath is perfect.

A good lithium spray-on or BreakFree CLP, both on the blade and the leaf springs in the sheath. It is supposed to be very snug, as to hold the knife in the sheath without snapping the strap.

It's' a pretty fat knife. About 5" long & 2" wide so normal hunting cases won't fit. You're going to need something tactical.

Double edge persona blade or shark blades work well too. Once you put it in between the clamps an close the lever to lock it in, it works wonders.

My Trailmaster came with the plastic sheath and I am very happy it is not leather for a high carbon blade which is subject to rust.This blade is very big,I will take it with me when shtf occurs,it would be able to handle any task put before it.
