Very cool ! Is it 1 layer of 8-9 oz English Bridle glued directly to the kydex ? I’d like to try that .

Yo MC!
Unsure of the leather weight. Purchased a huge mailbag of leather scraps for pennie's from a boutique satchel company near our prior residence. I traced out the kydex on the rough/suede side, left a cm on all edges, brushed both the leather rough side and kydex with a coating of cement, hand pressed/fitted it, sandwiched in cling wrap then squished it overnight. Opened it up and ran a razor blade around the edges. Ta-da!

finished up a couple for the SDFK and DEK2

On the DEK2 Brown, it looks like there is an additional hole on the loop to shorten it up?

On the Brown SDFK there is no extra hole, but is it possible to add in one more hole, in order to have it ride higher, but without the additional excess strap length (perhaps cut off) now hanging lower?

And lastly, will the SDFK sheath also fit the Signature series SDFK due to the top swedge added on the SS?

All 4 look beautiful, and the additional tooling really sets them off.

A+ work Bill 🤩👍

Thank you for the kind words 😊😊😊

Yes you can move the strap down. Picture is not the best, it’s actually burgundy.

For the burgundy SDFK , I pretty much build these one at a time. So when the build starts I can set the ride height to the persons liking. Including additional holes for adjustment. I’ve used small belt buckles also for on the loop.

Yes the Signature series fits very nicely 👍
