Too pretty to get dirty! Classy rig, though.
I use an AWP from Lowes with two rare-earth magnets in the slit pouch to hold my Lesche or other digger - not really a sheath but secure. And easy to clean out.

Did put a little "bling" customization on for a buckle. ;-)

I agree.. I wouldn't want one as ornate. However, I think a nice leather pouch similar to the one shown would work great. I don't need the leg strap rig. I'm using a cheap kellyco pouch now; it's ok.. But I need more storage for the really big gold!
Is anyone familiar with these custom leather rigs? I like the quality leather work. All the stuff online seems to be cheap Chinese made.

If there are any venders here on the forum that make these; I would be interested.
Chris... whats the size of that pouch ?
Sweet man.Pretty decent in size actually about the same dimensions as the Garrett camo pouch but sticks out a bit more. I'll see if I can grab one and take a few photos next to a pen or a stapler or whatever for reference for you before 5:30 EST or so when I get off work. It holds all my stuff quite well.
This is one of Swingbot's. I ordered it off eBay a few weeks ago. 34 dollars, I think. And yes, the bottom is open to allow sand and dirt to fall out. Search ebay for "buzz bomb sheath".Both of those took a lot of tooling. The one with the straps took many hours to make. I bet if it sold it would go well over $100. Swingbot makes sheaths on here, but they are not fancy, just functional. Functional is all that is required anyway. He also rivets the stress points. I've had one almost two years now. Been on probably a 1,000 hunts with me.
In the near future I am going to make my own leather sheaths (I have leather experience) because I cannot find exactly what I need.
