I bought this sheath for my Cold Steel Trail Boss and it works okay. The buckle and rivets are made of metal and the leather seems to be of pretty good quality (Though I am no expert on leather). There is also a welt which protects the edge of the blade and the stitching seems good Each piece of leather (Welt, strap, sides, etc.) are 1/8 inch thick. The strap is 14 inches. The side where you insert the axe blade is about 6 and 7/8 inches long and the slit in which the actual blade goes is 5 and 3/4 inches long. The top is about 3 and 3/4 inches long and the bottom is about 2 and 1/2 inches long (Depending on where you consider the start of the curve (See pictures). The reason I bought this sheath was for my Cold Steel Trail Boss, and I am pretty pleased with its quality. The only problem I have (Which I expected when I purchased this sheath) is that it's a bit over an inch bigger than the blade of the Cold Steel Trail Boss. This is not a problem to me since it is one of the cheapest options that seems to be of good quality. The only problem I have with this, which I don't think others have reported is that the side of the rivet that holds the strap that faces the inside of the sheath scratched my axe head a little. This is not a big deal to me and I don't really mind, but I have included pictures so you can tell what I mean. All in all, I gave this sheath five stars because it does its job. it is as described, and it is a good value.

Large axe mask.
Well made mask for a large cutting bit. I used on a Stubi axe and it works well. Does what it for... Stops the axe biting you in transit. Good leather on my sample.

I LOVE This Leather Axe Guard!!
I don't usually write a review but felt I needed to in this instance. I recently bought a surplus German military axe which has a blade a little over 5 1/2 inches wide. I wanted to protect my axe edge and having great difficulty finding a guard that would fit my blade and fit my budget. I found this item and when people were saying it was "big" I thought it just might fit. I looked at the listed measurements and figured it was worth a chance. As you can see from the pictures it is almost as if this guard was built exactly for my axe!! I took several pictures so you can see the size of the axe and, therefore, the size of the guard. If you are buying for a "traditional" axe that is, say, 4" wide then this will work but understand it is a little big for that. But for my axe with a very wide axe head this fit perfectly!! It is great quality for such a reasonably priced axe guard!!

Fits big axe heads!
Fits my large Walters felling axe just fine. It actually appears to be good quality and can be repaired. This is a real leather sheath that just might last as long as your axe.
