Actually my first custom Kydex sheath by anybody really. Looks awesome, and my 11 fits like a glove... a little too good... I think I might rip the belt loops off my pants before the knife comes loose. Now I can wear my knife scout style so it won't get caught on anything when I'm trecking thru the woods or in my boat, and feel confident that it won't fall out the sheath when I'm busting me arse over roots and boulders. Awesome job @azwelke.

Azwelke’s sheaths are top notch for sure!
I’ve been very happy with each of mine.
Congrats on a fine sheath!

Just curious...is it still really tight when using your thumb to apply pressure on the thumb-ramp of the sheath when releasing the knife?...
That’s a nice little trick when pulling a knife from some of the better Kydex maker’s sheaths. Instead of pulling it straight out you just use your thumb to kind of “pop” it out. :thumbsup:

SWEET! Looks Great! It will get better with use :thumbsup:
 
Not sure. I went to the photo site, right clicked the photo, clicked copy image location, then entered that into the photo icon to embed the media gallery.

Weird, but now I'm a Gold Member... and also the President so I shouldn't have anymore problems... Thanks again Dub.

I mean I just got it so it probably needs some wear. Then again the 11 has a short handle so it's a little tuff to use the thumb ramp on the sheath to pop it out... not a lot of leverage. Ill get the hang of it eventually. Still an awesome piece though. Definitely gonna hit up azwelke again.
 
i just ordered the same set up.
yours looks good, but your handle is awful clean compared to mine... to my eye, you need some more wear around the bottle opener too!:)

True, I use everything else to open my bottles... Tell you the truth I just really started carrying it. Carried folders before this one.
