I saw that the other sheaths went pretty fast and I figured not everyone was able to get one. So, I decided to make some available as well.
What makes mine different?
Several things:
1) I use 1/8th inch thick kydex. Most others use .060 or .080. 1/8tH inch is near indestructible. It's harder to work, but worth it in my view.
2) I use a thumb push-off. This makes withdrawing the knife clean and easy. No need to pull up your pants into a wedgie
each time you draw your knife.
3) I engage the handle, not the blade. This minimizes scratching.
4) Efficient design. I don't care for the pancake style, as that takes up too much belt space. Also, I don't have a veranda-size welt for the hardware.
5) I prefer not to use a Teklok. Cool as they are, I've had so many come undone or force the knife to ride uncomfortably close to the body that I don't use them much. Instead, I use one piece that utilizes a sturdy integral belt loop.
6) Semi-custom. If you're, um, calorically enhanced and need more offset, I can do that. If you want a 1.5" belt or a 2.25" belt loop, no problem. Right or left hand? You tell me, that's how it'll be done. (note that it says "semi-custom"......this is for a basic vertical sheath for belt carry, not some inverted-clips-to-your-sock kind of thing!)
7) You can DISASSEMBLE THE SHEATH and clean it out right ! Get that dirt and grit outta there ! Unscrew the hardware and run a paper towel down the interior and you're good to go! The choice USED to be: pack the dirt/grit in there farther so it'll never come out! Not anymore.
8) ADJUSTABLE TENSION. that's right......YOU set the amount of tension you need or want. I've tried many "identical" knives in a sheath only to find they're not all that identical. It depends who was working the grinder or shaped the scales that day. This results in minor differences. A "fixed fit" kydex sheath might fit mine perfectly.........yours, not so much. With the adjustable tension, you can make it fit YOURS the way YOU want.
Now, I've noticed that the Meaner Street SE has a full height grind....UNLIKE the Muddy or Sage Meaners. That means, for them to "fit right" you really need the sheath molded to the one you have. You're in luck! I happen to own each! So I can make sure you get the right sheath for your knife. (If you have both, order it for the Muddy/Sage, but be aware the blade of the SE will move around ever so slightly as a result. But you don't gotta get a sheath for each.
The deal: I have a couple days coming up that I can set aside for making these sheaths. But after that, I have a big military order coming up, so sheaths will have to wait. What this means is, don't dally. If you want one, order one. You'll have it within 7-10 days, if not sooner.
AVAILABLE FOR: Meaner Street, both Muddy and SE Also for BATAC, both Standard scales and Magnum. (no SE's or LE's at present, sorry!)
I am geared up for TWENTY Meaner sheaths, and TWELVE BATAC sheaths. Once these numbers are reached, I'll have to reevaluate the situation and time frame before the "Big One" hits. I may be able to add a few more, I do not know right now.
Finally, who am I? I am KyTac (www.kytac.com) the maker of World Class winning holsters, etc, etc.
