I started out by looking for a better BK-11 sheath. One that would not dull the edge or rattle.

Looked at the options on a certain auction website and chose Azwelke.

After using it for a month it broke in very well and it is a pleasure to use.

Then I went back and bought one for my BK-15. Super tight at first but it has broken in now to the point where it doesn't take everything I have to unsheath the knife.

So tonight I went back and got another one for my beloved BK-5.

They're very well made sheaths. A good amount of attention if detail was definitely put into them. I have one for my 14 and I really want to get one for my 16 now. Great retention on them too. Cheers.
 
Azwelke's sheath's are almost as addictive as Beckers.., almost! lol

But they area damn nice sheaths, I've got one for my 14, and one for my Izula and I plan on picking up more in the near future.

I'd like to see pics of the sheath you got for the 15 if ya get a chance!
 
Once I got my first sheath from Al, that was the end,,, now I have over a dozen of them!!
 
i been meaning too get one or two of his sheaths myself, guess i need too do it!
 
I'd like to see that bk15 sheath. Been thinking about getting one. Pics or it didn't happen :D
 
Thank You all for the kind words!! :)
Al
 
I have an Az sheath for my Scrapdagger. It's a GREAT little sheath. I love it.

Eli also does really good work, but this is about Al. :D
 
I'll just leave this here:

Well I got my BK-5 sheath in the mail today.

BIG problems with it. First, the knife needs to be pounded into the sheath, and once it is in, good luck getting it out. I thought maybe it was made too tight, but I specifically said the sheath was for a Camillus BK-5 with Micarta handles.

Then... I noticed something...

The blade on a Camillus BK-5 is 1/2" longer than the blade of a KaBar BK-5. It doesn't fit because it is simply too much blade.

Disappointing.
 
First off, I would like to apologize for the mix up, I see you left a note and I missed it.
My sale was for a KaBar BK5 sheath, and that's what it fits perfectly without a problem.

I am happy to refund your money as I do not have the Camillus BK-5.

Thank you,
Al

At the time I felt the need to mention it was a Camillus because I know KaBar changed the blade thickness on some of the Beckers. I didnt know they changed blade lengths! And I wonder why they did?


IMO it's really no one's fault here. Just one of those things I guess. I will be needing a BK-14 sheath though...
 
Learned something else.


Today I put kabar micarta on my BK-15. It works just fine with the azwelke kydex sheath with no mods needed. Cool.
