Horizontal Knife

Can someone tell me of a maufacture that makes a horizontal knife. Want it for skinning. I really like the concept of carrying the knife horizontally. Would like to keep the price around $100-150.
 
Horizontal knife? Rotate your wrist 90*! Seriously, any sheath maker can make a horizontal sheath. I tried that. It's ok and has some merit but overall I found I didn't care for it.
 
Benchmade Hidden Canyon Hunter Knife is one option.
But I have really fallen in love with my Outdoor Edge GS-100 Big Game skinner for skinning.
 
Yes horizontal Sheath. Sorry guys. Any recommended sheath makers for leather and kydex. I just thought someone might know of a manufacture that might sell the knife and sheath together. I know there is alot of stuff on the interet. But I thought a knife junkie could point me in the direction of someone credible. There is a lot of junk out there.
 
Very few knives come with a horizontal sheath. Mostly bushcrafters or defensive knives. I would go here.......

Great company and they have everything. Find the knife you want then shop online for sheath makers. Horizontal kydex "foldover" or "taco" style sheaths are abundant and fairly inexpensive. Leather can be from cheap crap to three times the price of your knife!

Finding the right knife is a very personal thing (for me anyway). Good Luck

P.S. I spend a lot of time on https://bushcraftusa.com/forum/ and there are lots of custom makers (knives and sheaths) that post there.
 
I have the Benchmade Hidden Canyon for years and it is a good knife. I am 10 times more concerned about the type of steel a knife is constructed of, then the shape of the blade and last the sheath.
D2 steel or S30 are typically my first choices for taking a good edge and holding it.
 
the right steel can be make or break for a knife.

i remember when 440 stainless was the big thing... awful steel for a knife.

yes its great stainless resistance - i dont think you can corrode the stuff in a bat of acid and saltwater - and yes it'll hold an edge for [beeep] near what feels like forever

but good luck putting an edge back on it when you do eventually dull it. oye.
 
All the TOPS brand knives that come with Kydex sheath have a metal clit that can turn to any position and will allow horizontal carry. TOPS Knives Eagles Shadow Fixed Blade Knife
