I had a 'local' customer come up, and I made some sheaths for him last night.

Thought I would share them...

Sheaths for SwampRat Rodent Waki, Ontario TAK and RTAKII...

The RTAKII, with a FireSteel Loop, and a Sharpener Loop...

The Rodent Waki in all it's outdoor 'combat' glory!

Then, recently I finished some other stuff...


A Spyderco Aqua Salt...

A couple of Mules, with BHK Scales...

Sometime back, a customer sent me his RTAK...

Kind of a cool shot with different colors in it....

Finished a bunch of sheaths today, thought I would share some images...


An OD Green sheath for the Spyderco Perrin Street Bowie, (I wish I had a duplicate of this knife, I'll tell ya!)...
sheath-perrinod.jpg



A sheath for a Spyderco Perrin Street Beat with a customized Spyderco G-clip for 45 degree carry, I had seen it done, but this is the first for me, came out pretty slick, though I might move it done towards the tip one more hole...

A sheath for the Spyderco BushcraftUK with all the trimmings, Tek Lok and FireSteel Loop, not the traditional choice...
sheath-bushcraftukall.jpg



A sheath, FireSteel Loop and Spyderco G Clip for the Mora Clipper... (though it would look a bit better if I had the green trimmed model, but I don't, yet.)
sheath-clipperodall02.jpg



A sheath for an EnZo Trapper 95, with FireSteel Loop and mini Tek Lok (it took a bit of work to figure it out, but it works pretty well) I like this knife, I will have to one, once they are for sale again...
sheath-enzo-odall.jpg



This one took me awhile, I could never quite dial it in, but I think I got it now... A sheath for a Craftsman. The retention was always too stiff, which I like, but my average customer is not so hot for...

An image showing some of the different colors I work with...

Thanks for looking!

Shipped three Swick sheaths out today...

This is the new style I just worked up, and it will be the style I will offer with the Swicks, from now on...

Sand with ParaCord over Ballchain, makes a great neck knife, and the light colored sheath helps it blend in....

OD Green...

Sand with a Spyderco G-clip...

Marion, I'm not familiar with kydex so excuse me if this is a dumb question but can the fire stik and knive sharpener loops/pouches/etc. be attached to the top of the kydex instead of to the side? It seems to me that the addition of loops to each side makes the sheath's silhouette too wide.

No problem, happy to help, and please excuse the tardiness of my reply.

I could build the loops for the accessories, so that they would be on the flats of the sheath, if I understand you right.

If you are serious in your interest, I could modify a FireSteel Loop, so that it would mount that way, and take pictures.

Thank you,
Marion
 
Sending out a bunch of sheaths tomorrow, and as I am in the habit of taking pictures of just about my entire production, I have a few images to show off.... And I will have a few more images tomorrow.


I have built a couple sheaths for the BK7, but they never were well received, so I stretched a bit, and did a Fold-Over for one... Not my usual shape, but this has got a certain something to it...

I recently got an F1, so that I could build sheaths for a few of my customers, this is the first one I built, in Coyote Kydex. Coyote looks sexy, tactisexual!

I really like your RTAK sheath...better than the one I have now. Unfortunately me sending mine to be worked on is impractical.

Hey I love the pink pants on my izula. Dont own a camera and your pic would probabl be better in any case. Just wanted you to know that and thanks for your work.

So, you for sure have the first one from Ontario, not the RTAK II?
