Can anyone post, e-mail or provide me with a link to tips on molding Kydex?

I have a couple of knives and some Kydex I'd like to experiment with but only a vague idea as to how I should get started.

I know I could buy a book but that's cheating.

Hey there,

Buy yourself a cheap heat gun and a piece of foam rubber.

I still use a cheap heat gun and foam rubber. But Have also graduated to a toaster oven.

Have fun

Hi Pirtle.

Seems to me I steered you towards this forum. I know I did that to somebody. While I think you might get some good answers, I think the Shop Talk forum is better.

Anyhow, I just ran a search over there, and was able to find the thread I remembered that had good posts, especially one from Normark. Here is that thread URL:

Sorry if it was you I led astray.

Hello

We had an article on kydex/concealex sheaths in the last issue of Cutelaria Hoje. I'll try to send you a copy of it later by e-mail.
Good luck.
