FBM LE Kydex @ BCS - Very nice

[KnifeFury]

Thanks Skunk! I ordered a Kydex sheath for my FBM LE Wednesday evening and it was here on Saturday. Can't beat that.

Plus, it is one of the nicer Kydex sheaths I have seen (comparing to production Kydex sheaths - SOG, Ka-bar, etc..). And at $55 + shipping is a steal.

Just curious though, does anyone know who made this sheath for the BCS? I would want to keep them in mind for the future... very nice work.

That is a very nice kydex sheath for the FBMLE. I too am curious to find out who made these sheaths? Whoever it is did a really nice job :thumbup:

Skunk, you didn't happen to make these while you were drunk did ya????

The retention is around the handle. After doing some web surfing, I have a guess as to who made the sheath but will what to see if I am right...

Dave Brown perhaps? Maybe Okuden? I'm curious as well.

I was guessing Okuden as well.

no not oku, the thumb ramp and handle blocking is different than my oku scabbards as well as the rivet pattern and texture. i'll check with vicki as she brought a few of these home.

Perhaps Tyrkon has upped his game? He may have found a new sprinker head supplier!

Definately not a Buy Brown sheath because Dave uses the taco style that I prefer. It does have a Okuden look but I don't think so either because okuden typically has a little more flare by the handle spine junction for the thumb pushoff. My guess is that Vicki grabbed these from Grandsuave :thumbup: There are very distinct details in there that I see that are also present in Grandsuave's Sus Scrofa Sheath. Anybody want to bet some money ?

I received mine yesterday. GOt the GW too.

They are both really nice. Real thick kydex. Great retention.

I am going to attach a tigerhide cult in kydex today.

wil Post pics later
