BK-2 Pancake Sheath - Winner announced, Thank god

[jwaj]

Because the BK2 is 1/4" piece of steel. It needs a little extra room.

 

[crimsonfalcon07]

Convex stitching to make it easier to sheathe blind, while maintaining retention? Also looks to have a similar effect for the firesteel.

 

[357survival]

It sures looks like a Limited Edition BK10LE will fit in there nice.

 

[The Warrior]

You still awake Skystorm, haha? I'm sure the answer is so easy, and we're all making it harder than what it is.

 

[The Warrior]

It's stitched that way, simply because you thought it looked better, haha. Well, if nothing else, I've enjoyed posting my photos.

 

[MikeyJ]

Does it have to do with the ease of stitching around curves? Finishing/trimming the edges? Dammit man...you're killing me!

 

[cautioning]

So because the bk2's handle is so much taller it sticks out a lot more. So it would be more prone to get caught on stuff. So the tip of the blade would have room to move without the tip piercing through the stitching if it got really torqued.

 

[Skystorm]

Think ergonomics,

This is the worst easy contest ever. I'm gonna stick to just building stuff next time.

 

[357survival]

So now it looks like a big thumb or toe...?

 

[357survival]

So it can fit in your front pocket?

 

[The Warrior]

Alright, I have to go eat. Good luck guys.

 

[ol_sc]

EXACTLY!

Now Why did I do that??

and you better post a pic quick if you got the why answer

I don't have a 11 or 14, otherwise I would

 

[Psyop]

For easier resheathing

 

[357survival]

It allows the knife to sit at more of an angle so it doesn't poke you in the side or so you can draw it easier instead of being straight up and down.

 

[slapper]

concave stitching.
So when you draw the knife you can pull it on an upward arc w/o binding.

 

[rokclmb]

The convex curved stitch gives the knife some wiggle room so the handle doesn't poke/jab you in the stomach when you bend over or sit down?

 

[discdoggin]

Damn BK11 is at home hanging... Is the welt v gouged to better contain the blade and keep it off the stitching?

 

[357survival]

It takes less stitching so it's cheaper to make!

 

[thrillbilly]

is it run that way to reinforce the belt loop ear? that would be a wide stretch of leather to bend/flop if the stitches followed the blade curve.

 

[Skystorm]

concave stitching.
So when you draw the knife you can pull it on an upward arc w/o binding.

WINNER!!

PM me your shipping details.

People never pull the knife straight out it always comes at a continuing angle.

Sorry guys I seriously thought someone would pick this right off. Hence the 'quick' part of the contest.
