Can anyone tell me the measurement, at the widest point, from the edge to the spine of a Dogfather blade? The main site mentions the thickness, but I haven't come across the specs for edge-to-spine width.

I don't have a micrometer, but by tape measure, I measured one of my mint CGs and it's 1 3/4-inches from edge to spine along the blade. At the widest point, between the handle and choil, it's about 2-inches.

Thanks, guys! How wide a blade do you think the Dogfather sheath would accept?

Thanks, guys! How wide a blade do you think the Dogfather sheath would accept? I sold my DF Corduras, but they were wide enough to hold a Busse FBM, but not the FFBM.
Horned, dangerous, and off my medication.

Thanks, Shaolin; how wide a blade could that nylon sheath hold, best as you can tell? (I'm assuming it's the nylon sheath SYKCO offers?)

Yeah, I think the seller mentioned factory sheath. Man, not much more, it does rattle though.

I think the nylon sheath is way better than the kydex one. The kydex DF sheath is a thumb snapper and a blade scratcher.

I like my kydex one. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> ![[Linked Image from i6.photobucket.com]](http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y209/andywayne/Knives/Swamp%20Rat/Scrap%20Yard%20Knives/Dog%20Father%20LE/06-17-08-22.jpg) ![[Linked Image from i6.photobucket.com]](http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y209/andywayne/Knives/Swamp%20Rat/Scrap%20Yard%20Knives/Dog%20Father%20LE/06-17-08-17.jpg) ![[Linked Image from i6.photobucket.com]](http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y209/andywayne/Knives/Swamp%20Rat/Scrap%20Yard%20Knives/Dog%20Father%20LE/12-18-07-14.jpg)
