Question??
I've always wondered if the 'fishtail' of exposed leather on the end of the Pukko or Rapalla fillet knife sheath is decorative, traditional, or functional??
Interweb experts say it is for grasping the sheath with one hand, while drawing the knife with the other.
I call BS on that!
There is never a need to hold the sheath to get the knife out as long as your thumb works to push the sheath off of the handle.
My pet theory is it's a cleverly designed drain tab to suck water out of the sheath and let it evaporate faster in open air.
What do you real experts say it's for??
