Hey fellas
I posted this elsewhere and figured I'd post it here as well since this is where I spend most of my time.
I use my Razel quite a bit mostly in the garden and around the yard so the knife picks up a lot of moisture from the vegetation it cuts. I've found that no matter how many times I wipe the blade on my pants before putting it back in the sheath there is still quite a bit of moisture build up in the sheath.
The other big reason I wanted to try this is because when rinse the sheath out it takes FOREVER to dry out.
I decided to drill two small holes in the bottom of the sheath to allow for greater ventialation and to hopefully help dry the inside of the sheath faster.
All I did was put it in a vice and used a hand held cordless drill with a bit just big enough to fit in the end.
Before
After
Here's what it allows water to do
Total package
And to make sure I give credit where credit is due, I got the idea from the RAT RC3 I have.
