Modular frogs

I don't get to carry my big knives often, but I like to be prepared :biggrin:
Here are two frogs that work with my sheaths that I've made with Sam Browne studs.



An over the shoulder "huckleberry" rig based loosely on the WW2 USGI tanker holster.
And a crossdraw belt rig.

Any of these knives and sheaths fit in either rig



Here they are with knives in place.


As long as future sheaths have the stud in the same place and aren't wider than the Western W49, I can use these frogs.

If I were to do them again I think I'd use thinner straps, smaller buckles and leave a little more meat on the outside edges of the belt frog.

I'm having fun though :D
 
Laurence, it is a W49.
When I got it you'd classify it as a beater.
I cleaned it up and did the "Bagwell Mods" on it.
Bobbed the guard, lowered the spine towards the tip and thinned the handle.
Ended up with this
