i have a busse combat mistress and the kydex sheath is loose so i'm wondering if anyone out there knows of away to snug it up?
 
Hello,

Well i am no expert... 8-) But i would use a hair dryer on highsetting and hold it close to the spot you want to tighten and move it back and forth until you can just move it a bit then stop and press and hold to your satisfaction until cool. I use a heatgun to do my kydex but unless your familiar with the forming propertys of the material you will ruin it using a heat gun, so just stick with a hair dryer, takes a bit more to heat up but safer for the material.

Remember though to kee the dryer moving and dont hold it in one spot or it will turn shiney and ruin your sheath.

I could tighten it up for you, which would be the best way to go. IF you want to pay the shipping to and from my shop i will tighten it for you for nothing, but i need the sheath and knife to do it.

let me know, take about 5 minutes to do it, or about an hour and 35.00 for somone to make another sheath for it if ya mess it up, 8-)
