My first time bending kydex.I am kind of proud how it turned out.I know some of the pro kydex benders will be laughing but starting with an old J clip,Dremel and a bic I don't think I could ask for more.Firesteel fits nice and snug.
I may buy a little kydex to put back for little things like this,was kind of fun.
What do you think?
 
Looks good to me and looks functional. Little tip if you want it. Heat the center and make the main bend (which it looks like you got that part), and then insert the FS (or a rod of the same size) and heat just on the inside edge of the FS. When that part's soft, take a block of wood, a steel ruler, or whatever with a straight edge and press into the crevice and straight down. It'll sharpen the definition and add retention.
