Leather Pants- Kydex Style.

[Boar-gen]

I just made leather pants for my Skeleton Warden and was thinking why not make it more or less the same way I make a kydex sheath! Form it after the knife and use rivets for various attachments.

So here is the result, with a small Tec-Lok attached.

i can make 'em but you'll have to send her in with all your knives for a fitting.

 

[smitty0331]

If I send her, do you promise to keep her?

Thank you Hogs! Yes, the retention is very good. I stiffen up the leather by giving it a hot wax treatment. The knife slides in place with a click, and still the leather is not that hard.

Very nice. Let your inspiration flow, benders. I wish I had the patience to try this stuff.

Thank you Hogs! I will probably try a similar approach on a sheath for my BATAC LE.
