Neck Knife sheath for a DB Strider

[Dan Gray]

I Made this for a Police officer
the Kydex one that it came with was not
to his liking so he wanted leather with one hand Thumb release
whatcha think? hang it up

 

[Raymond Richard]

Looks good, Dan. Does it work OK using one hand?

 

[Dan Gray]

Thanks Raymond yes it does
you wear it with the snap in toward you , he's right handed ,
you grab the handle just is you would hold it and the snap is
right there for your thumb.
you can snap it back up with one hand too
once it's back in place.
he was concerned because the Kydex sheath would let it
slip out if he was jumping or running hard. it's not good for you if
these are running down the front side of you while running

I think it's sweet!

Looks great Dan, I've been trying to come up with a design that would work with leather and not kydex. Don't get me wrong, kydex is good stuf, but realy prefer leather. Looks like you nailed it!

 

[Dan Gray]

thanks Guys I know what you mean with Kydex, Will :barf:
I'm not a big fan of it..I like making them, but just not a carryer of them leather rocks....
but it does have it place like this Dive knife
I make with a Kydex leg sheath

Nice design and your usual super workmanship Dan. I have a mental block with Kydex. I put it off and off and off.
