BK2 Sheath Question

[butlerbm1978]

Does anyone know if the BK2 Sheath is compatible with a Blade-Tech Tek-Lock?

 

[shootist16]

I don't think so. But there are many custom kydex sheathmakers out there that could hook you up.

I hate to bump a thread so old, but I would like to know this also.

Sorry.

The answer is.... almost. Or put another way, yes with customization. I used a teklok with my BK2 sheath, but I had to forcibly remove the nylon webbing and cut out the rivets. Then, the holes in the bracket line up perfectly with the TekLok, which enabled me to screw it directly to the attachment point of the webbing.

Here's a quick snapshot, I have it set up for sideways (scout style) carry:

And here's a top view:

I have to say I LOVE this setup.... the weight is perfectly balanced with the TekLok.... almost as if they planned it that way. Hmmmm..... ;-)

Can you reply with the exact model for that teklok- i have seen other pictures of products that dont' span the whole sheath and only provide two points of contact - yours clearly makes four points. I want to be sure to get the right one.

He used a normal Large Tek-Lok. The ones with 2 points of contact you speak of are different, they are Small Tek-Loks. (could another member with more Tek-Lok knowledge verify or deny this statement?)

On another note, I should have seen this thread sooner, I didn't know I needed to remove webbing from the bracket, I thought I just replaced the bracket with the Tek-Lok....

Yep I did this to mine. Made it SO much more usable. Just cut out those rivets and get rid of the stupid nylon... the mount itself is actually really nice and all 3 holes line up perfectly with the tek-lok.

I have mine mounted for regular belt carry... works very well. Definitely recommend.

OK, the pictures of yours appear to differ from the products I am seeing on amazon - http://www.amazon.com/Tek-Lok-Bladetech-Tek-Lok/dp/B005KN6DIA. Yours seem to offset and drop and fit awsome. Another forum member posted some pictures that were less then optimal - http://www.bladeforums.com/forums/showthread.php/823937-Good-pic-of-tek-lok-on-BK2-vertical-carry When i checked out the blade-tech website i could not find an exact match to your but i did see this - http://www.blade-tech.com/Drop-Offset-Attachment-w-ASR-pr-961.html. Do you have a link or something from where you purchased it? That would be great!

 

[MaxWolfMarrin]

OK, so i think i answered my own question, as i don't actually own a BK-2 YET, i believe (correct me if i am wrong) that the portion that i thought was part of the tek-lok is actually the remainder of the sheath of the BK-2 after the nylon has been removed. OK thanks for taking the time!

 

[JWL]

Yep, you got it....

All the pictures belong to JWL, the pitiful explanations belong to me.

Now I just need to fix the screw on my webbing bracket so I can carry my 2 right handed Scout, I guess I could just go right handed Ranger.
