Posted this on Spyderco's Forum, but also like opinions from this knowledgeable group.


Got a preferrence question for you. A lot of you are familiar with the Street Beat sheaths I been making that use my handmade G-clips. Lately I've begun using Spyderco's new G-clips, because you also get the horizontal carry that many of you like, while still keeping the ability to go beltless with sweat or running shorts, which I like. I've only seen pictures of the Spyderco sheath featuring the new G-clip, and it looks like they are placing the posts on the outside of the sheath with the screws on the inside of the G-clip instead of the other way around. Both ways work with it being marginally easier to change set-ups with the screws on the inside of the G-clip. Here's the question: Which way would you prefer on a custom sheath? Here's a couple pics of the G-clip on a Street Beat sheath.
 
Mike,

That looks good to me... I don't have any fixed blades set up for horizontal carry but it looks like that would do nicely.

I generally prefer tek-loks on mine because I can adjust them to fit exactly to the belt width (well, the big ones anyway).

I just hate it if the knife wobbles around....

Dunno if this helps or not... if you want to send me a SB in your sheath I'd be happy to do a proper evaluation for you. :D
 
I have a Street Beat & need a sheath. Do you make these with a tek-lok? Do you have a web site?
