Mini Review - AZ Welke BK4 Machax and BK14 sheaths

[Bladite]

well, you know sheaths... but perhaps not in these colors:

and wow, that seems to have come out bright... perhaps too much "awesomize" on the filter :>

flexible strap is flexbile! some kind of thick tough vinyl like materal, it's not kydex, if you were wondering:

back side showing "loop" - very cleverly made of a single piece of kydex, and shaped. edges are SMOOOOOOOTH. good touch that. note the new stamped logo too:

good looking hardware, and of course, removable and adjustable up and down, or even replaceable with something else:

it's almost like the hole spaces are built on some kind of standard template, so you can zip tie, bolt, or otherwise go modular - now i just need to get some rubber washers and cool spacers:

fit and finish on both is impeccable. edges appear to be heat polished to they're SMOOTH - no biting or cuts. lockup is tight and in the case of the Machax sheath in particular, almost zero rattle even when you try hard - due to the taco pattern, there is SOME slight movement, but you gots to try. the BK14? nope. SOLID.

purple is the new black

thanks for the good work AZ Welke :>

that BK4 sheath pastern is pure genius. I been admiring that since I first saw it...I actually even dig the purple on your set, kinda cool.

Bling! alu scales and a purple sheath....it's like royalty of something

 

[The Warrior]

Very nice, but can't say I like the color.

Pink would have suited you better.

NO! Pink and purple polka-dots are his favorite! I won't tell you how I know this

 

[MrKnifekid]

Those sheaths are awesome.

 

[Captain Airyca]

oh wow, those are stunning! I wonder if he'd do a limegreen one....

 

[wasatchdan]

I'm getting one of those sheaths. That's good stuff.

Awesome sheath!! Looks to be very well designed and made. Quality work!

 

[daizee]

holy crapinoli.
that is the most highly filtered sheath I have ever seen.

While I mostly lurk in this section, (I do own an 11 with micarta scales) I've got plenty of Al's sheaths & his work is really top notch! He also keeps ya' informed of shipping & real easy to deal with! I'm waitin' on a 20+" taco pancake from him as I type this.

 

[Haze240]

Very nice indeed. Does he make them for men too?

 

[Moosez45]

Al's sheaths are truly something beyond awesome.

I have one for my 9, and damn, what a sheath.

Did you supply the kydex or was it something he had ? Machax sheath looks great and easy to deploy the knife.

 

[Renegade90]

That is some terrific work! I definitely see an azwelke sheath in my future.

 

[CamH_16]

Sheath design = Legendary.

Color = I didnt know Bladites day job was playing the purple teletubby.

 

[Bladite]

Pink would have suited you better.

matches the blanket.

nothing wrong with pink though, i'm secure in my person-hood :>

also considering an AR platform in fuschia
