Moo & Dex for 2 Great Blades

[Martin Swinkels]

The sheaths for the Krebbekx knives are both done.
They are improved versions of the original Ratweiler pattern. Still the thick .125” kydex and thick halftanned leather, but some small changes.

The beltloop is cut differently.
The beltloop is wetformed to follow the shape of sheath and belt better
The tension screw has changed, and tension is variable over a wider range
The strap is made of thicker halftanned then ever
There is slightly more kydex around the guard for secure retention

I hope you like them.

The knives were forged by Dutch Bladesmith Toni Oostendorp a.k.a. Eastvillage or Cubereaction, and named after the owner and co-designer Mr. J. Krebbekx from Brabant.

Cheers,
martin

Wow. Absolutely perfect sheaths for those two knives. Awesome work!

Very nice work. I agree, it's a perfect style for those knives. I particularly like the retention strap system.

 

[Toni Oostendorp]

Great quality and design, love them!

Beautiful knives, beautiful sheathes. The transition with the ricasso, choil, and guard have a unique look and I love the curvy spine.

Oh yeah, this is the sheaths forum. Excellent work Martin. I like the new screws and belt loops; nice upgrades to the original design.:thumbup:

Possibly the sharpest sheaths I've seen. The good Lord a willing and the creek don't rise, I would like to commission you to make me a sheath someday.
