HEre is a little keychain knife that I just finished.
It is walrus Ivory and my own damascus. This is also my first Kydex sheath. Any comments would be welcome.
 
thats cool. Nice to have that to clean under your fingernails everyday!!
 
I really like it (now time to copy it for myself- kidding!). The only change I would make is smaller rivets in the kydex sheath- they seem out of place with a sheath that small (or no rivets- I have recently been folding the kydex over onto itself instead of rivets and it is working well for smaller knives). I assume that the knife itself will go onto the keychain- if you drilled a couple of holes at the top of the sheath you canhang the sheath off of the keychain and have the knife free (but I don't know if this is what you were shooting for).
Keep up the great work!
 
I was planning on the knife going on the ring. The keys would act as the handle when using the knife. It could work either way though. The rivets are snaps. I dont have any good rivets for kydex and the snaps could also snap to a belt if you wanted to add a lanyard to the knife and use it that way.

Thanks for the comments.
 
nice combo. IMHO I would put a keyring thru the kydex. looks really great though. some people leave their kydex a little to bulky for me. your's is really compact. i like it
