Abstract
A belt-mountable scabbard for carrying a sportsman's knife comprises spaced apart walls defining an elongated recess for receiving and protecting the blade of a knife carried in the scabbard. A knife blade sharpener is permanently mounted on the scabbard and comprises a blade-receiving sharpening slot formed in the scabbard and a pair of angularly arranged abrasive elements permanently attached to a wall of the scabbard near the sharpening slot for making sliding engagement with the edge of a knife blade being moved in the slot to effect sharpening.
