Matt was very clear that these were permanently discontinued and never to be made again.

This is not a factory accessory—it is a \u003cstrong\u003ebespoke, hand‑crafted sheath\u003c\/strong\u003e made from premium materials, artfully finished, and tailored precisely to this exact Centurion 26 dagger. This setup is a \u003cstrong\u003etrue 1‑of‑1\u003c\/strong\u003e. There is \u003cstrong\u003eno other example on earth\u003c\/strong\u003e configured like this, nor could it be reproduced if I tried, as the leather itself is uniquely character adorned and the finish is naturally one of a kind.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe dagger and sheath are in excellent new condition, with only minimal signs of careful handling from when it was back in Australia at the makers shop. As soon as this blade was received in America, it was carefully removed from the kydex sheath and never re-inserted to avoid kydex rub and scratches...due to this precaution, there are no scratches or kydex rub, which if you collect Zu blades you know that's actually quite a rare statement. You might see some little imperfections in the natural finish, as to be expected with these tools, but no true kydex wear or anything like that. Edge is pristine. Original Kydex Sheath included.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCollector’s Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIf you’re new to Zu bladeworx, Matt's designs are exceptional and he does all of the heat treat in house to pull the most performance out of every blade. If you are familiar with other hard use makers from the USA such as RMJ Tactical, Busse Combat, Medford Knife \u0026amp; Tool, and Strider knives...Zu Bladeworx gives up absolutely nothing in terms of quality compared to these companies and has his own very unique style with integral handles. The machining work is the best I've seen, perfectly symmetrical from side to side, just A+ clean manufacturing. I've been a fan and collector of these amazing knives for many years and due to the limited nature, not using distributors, and most of their blades being sent to the Australian military, they make for a fantastic collectible. If you are already familiar with Matt's work, then you already know this is a rare opportunity. These do not come up often and certainly not with a custom sheath of this caliber. Collectors of daggers, unique militaria, or just bomb proof unique gear will definitely not want to miss this! \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe stock kydex sheath is included as well\u003c\/strong\u003e, and although it's a very nice quality sheath please do not use it unless you are okay with scratching the blade. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis is an inevitable part of using hard plastic sheaths, especially if any grit gets in there. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCollectors wishing to keep the blade pristine, should use only the leather sheath.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFor Active Duty Military:\u003c\/strong\u003e Kindly contact me before purchase if you plan to take this setup into battle so I can install a retention strap for you, unless you prefer to customize it yourself. The current configuration is a classic friction fit which is fine unless you are planning to jump out of plane or helicopter. The stock kydex sheath is of course included as well, and has excellent retentive capacity, but kydex will absolutely scratch the knife...probably not your biggest concern, but figured I'd mention it. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Roac","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58579567476896,"sku":null,"price":1675.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0130\/9619\/0009\/files\/DSC_0840.jpg?v=1785938875","url":"https:\/\/roacleather.com\/products\/zu-bladeworx-centurion-26-integral-combat-dagger-custom-leather-sheath-one-of-one","provider":"Roac","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
