I'm thinking about making a kydex sheath for my buck 110. However, I like the idea of more of a full sheath that the majority of the knife will sit it that I can mount on my belt. Most of the ones I've seen just have a small portion of the knife attached to the sheath. Would a full "quick draw" type sheath be possible out of kydex?

Depends on what you mean by quick draw. You're best option would be to get a couple pieces of wood or whatever about the thickness of the width from the blade to each edge of the handle. Contour it so that it fits on each side of the blade to make the whole knife straight on the blade side. Then take just enough off of them to give a bit of a lip for retention at the guard.

If by quick draw you mean it opens as you draw it, then I'm sure it's possible, but not sure of the specifics needed.
