)But I have been making art knives the past 10 years and have never really messed with the stuff.Since recently I have been making tactical folders and am doing some straight knives I've been wanting to try some kydex sheaths.My first few didn't turn out the way I would have liked(ok they looked like crap!)My question is:is there anthing out there via the internet of otherwise where I can pick up knowledge on how to work with this stuff.Any imput would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance!!

Rick, I asked this same question and got alot of posts. I am getting pretty good now with concealex. I dont like kydex anymore. Check the archives for my post. Its very helpful thanks to all the experts here. Bruce
 
Hey Rhind....

I agreed with these guys....

Do a search here on BF.. There is A lot of info floating around....

Also check the web...

It's a fairly straight forward process. What makes you better than the next guy though is your technique...

If worse comes to worse and you get hung up,, you can always,, Ummm have a custom maker do them for you ..
