David is sending one of these to the great white north for a Christmas gift.
Very cool sheath!
:D
 
Wow that is pretty cool even if I do say so myself.
 
yea that hats pretty awsome :)

also thanks for the new style teklok works great. but im putting togeather a shoulder rig for it soon.
 
Just curious, why didn't you fold the kydex so your sheath would not require rivets on the blade side?


Good Question.

I do it this way for a couple of reasons.

1. the spine of a knife/sword is for the most part straight so it gives you a straight part of the object to base off of. It is more ascetically pleasing with the eyelets on the curve of the blade.

2. the spine is thicker than the edge so the kydex does not have to be folded so flat.

3. It would not cut through but if the fold was on the edge side the edge would rub against the kydex every time you sheathed & unsheathed the blade.

Hope that helps.
