Lets see your CPK in Leather!

Is that the slim 3.3?

 

[Lorien]

it's really nice for you all to take the time to give props- I totally appreciate it. And the photos!

wrt the Chicago screws that come included with the sheath, you might find that the male and female components locked together. The shank is exactly the same length as the thickness of the sheath, so the head of the fastener can bottom out against the shank when tightened right down. Because there is nothing to grab on the female component, disengaging can be a little tricky. What I do is get a piece of duct tape and fasten it to the female end and hold it in place while using a flathead to loosen the male fastener. in hindsight, I should've put a tiny dab of grease where the male and female fasteners meet. This shouldn't be a problem if you're holding a clip to the sheath using these screws.

The screws are brass, so if you grab them with pliers they'll immediately get gouged up. I looked high and low for unique and nice looking fasteners, and these ones are beauties. Very nicely manufactured. Might not work for you, in which case they don't need to be used

Received my package from Lorien!

Looks great, very good retention, conceals well, and it looks like it will last a long time.
I put a Sagewood Gear Universal Scout Strap on for cross draw carry. I like to use one instead of two so I can swivel the knife handle downward for better concealment.

Nice! Did it come with the screws clocked to the threads, or did you align them?

Thanks, I moved them to the other side so I could install the scout strap.

Received a box from Texas filled with wonderful leather works of art from the master, Mr Paul Long. sheathmaker
This alligator inlay is worthy of my Holy Grail, Nathan’s Nasty Little Double Edge Fighter. Thanks again for allowing us to use your knives Marc.

Also got this outstanding crossdraw designed with Joe Paranee for my EDC3.
BTW Paul has an EDC2 on hand if you’re interested.

Gosh dang Paul is freaking amazing.

He even accommodates basic ass people like myself who don’t want all the fancy inlays, although he did just send me pics of my UF2 sheath that’s shipping out. Got me a little bit of ostrich leather on this one

How about giving us a peek of that knife Dave!

 

[Lorien]

Ostrich leg

 

[Daverous]

Gus, does your house smell like a tack shop? I imagine it must with the sheer volume of leather, metal, and accoutrement you possesS.

P. S. I had to look up how to spell
accoutrement. A sure sign I have none in my possession.

 

[Jsega51]

Gusbuster , I had a similar chevron style accent with ostrich like that done for the UF2. Yours looks excellent on that FK2 sheath, I really like the bottom tie-off attachment on that!
