There is no thicker part closer to the handle that kydex would be holding. If you look at Izula or Swamp warden for example, there is a thick finger guard that is easy to use to hold the blade in the sheath. In case of SCRAPIVORE there is no such thing.
I'm not a kydex guru and I might be wrong, but the way I see it, the only way to secure the knife in the kydex would be using handle hole as an "anchor". This would mean that as soon as you wrap the handle, kydex would have to be reheated and readjusted.
The other way would be wrapping the handle first and then building the kydex that holds on to the wrap. That would mean that kydex will need to be custom fit to the wrap.
The only other way I see is using pure friction of the blade and handle with no "snap closure". That would mean that kydex will be scratching the blade and there will be no secure lockup.
I'd love to hear some opinions and ideas of kydex makers.
I'm not saying that design is bad. I love it. I have a knife like this with no choil. It is an awesome user.
I can't see spending $50 on a sub $50 knife.

Are you referring to the sheath? If so, sheaths (kydex) in that size are usually in the $30-35 range...
Or get a couple scraps of wood and make yourself one of these for the little beastie.-- GregS

I got em' for my S.Wardens for $25 each shipped.... But, what's a role of Duck Tape running these days? $5-7?
