Kydex Material

[axeldoomeyer]

I have seen some websites that are using colored Kydex, such as Cammo, OD Green, TAN, Red, Black, etc... I know where to get Black and I have plenty of it. Does anyone know where to get different colors of kydex?

I have seen websites that make sheaths with the different colors; however, they are not giving up their sources. Which I can understand why. I have even asked to purchase sheets of the material from them, figuring that this way they can still make money from from the sale. But every store I found that has uses it to make their product offer to make sheaths for me. What fun is that?

Kleerdex website, the manufacturer of kydex: http://www.kydex.com/
Customer Service Telephone: (800)325-3133, (803)642-6864

You can give them a call and ask them for kydex vendors in your area.

Alternatively, you could try sourcing colored kydex from knifemaker supply houses. I don't know which ones might carry more colors than black.

I have tried several knifemaker supply houses and no one carries colored kydex. I have emailed some like Texas Knife to see if they have any plans on carrying colored kydex. I have not heard from them as of yet.

Great idea (the colored Kydex thing)

Here's a link I found while looking for some Teflon:
http://www.sdplastics.com/kydex/kydex.html

They sell colored Kydex sheet.

Let us know how it works out.
