Re: Lg. Knife Scabbard
Low-Tech, p. 57 has detailed rules for sheaths.
"Listed sword and knife weights are roughly 2/3 weapon and 1/3 sheath; e.g., a 1-lb. large knife is a 0.7- lb. blade in a 0.3-lb. sheath, and a 3-lb. broadsword is a 2-lb. blade in a 1-lb. sheath." Further: "A replacement sheath costs 1/5 the price of a good-quality weapon if rigid or 1/10 good-quality price if flexible." There are a lot of other rules and clarifications in that section.

Re: Lg. Knife Scabbard
So you’re saying the $40 cost of a large knife includes the sheath?

Re: Lg. Knife Scabbard
Yes, that is correct. The sheath is included in the price and weight of the knife.
