I purchased a leather sheath for my 18" T Handled Lesche from Buzz Wilson. It is built to last a lifetime with a perfect fit and outstanding craftsmanship.

Drop Swingbot a note, he makes them and has pictures of all different styles he makes.
 
I guess that means no pictures and no web site to look at them
 
I guess because the Sunspot Stealth scoop is so popular someone had to hitch a ride on the Stealth name.
 
pretty easy to make sheaths or pin-pointer holders and even finds pouches yourself. Get some leather material cut out a pattern and
use small black zip ties to fasten together or make belt loops. leather drills really easy. I have made a number of finds pouches
out of already made bags or lunch packs.I install my own strap and clasp.
 
Rather than a sheath I have two rare-earth magnets epoxied to my finds pouch (a carpenter's belt pouch). That way my dirty Lesche just slides in a thin pouch divider and the magnets hold it with a solid "click".

How to you clean the dirt out of a sheath (or just not worry about it)?
 
As much "junk" as I dig have no time to put digger into sheath! Lol.
 
I snipped a small V notch into the bottom of my original Lesche sheath. It lets the sand and dried mud crumble out. They can plug up with crud.
 
I hear ya on that one! There are days I think it would be easier to just pull a trash barrel on wheels along with me!
 
My sheath is the back pocket of my Levis
 
does anyone make a digger with a beerholder?

Take a long pipe cleaner (you can get some a craft store). Shape it into a "U". Slide it in to the bottom of the sheath trying to keep the arms against the sides as much as possible. Slip it back and forth a bit, turn sheath upside down, squeeze the center of the sheath and pull out the pipe cleaner. Gravity will help do the rest. Lather, rinse, repeat a few times and you'll get the majority of the dirt inside. I keep a K-Bar with me when I go out into the woods and this technique helps a lot.
