Just recently joined this great forum and got into makin kydexsheaths about the same time...thought i'd post a few pics of my work so far.

Made theese two first.
Top one is my ol' nasty Mtech dagger that i previously used when dispatching wounded critters.
Bottom one is my favourite gutting and skinning knife, the EKA swingblade.

A few huntingbuddies got crazy when they saw my Swingbladesheath so i made them what they wanted..
Swingblade crazyness.... Managed to melt the "rubberish" handle on my gen1 badly:poop:..it didn't like the heat.

2 Guys wanted "specials" that i had great troubble with whilst making...you guys may laugh but i'm still a beginnero_O
First one was for a friend who wanted his knife hangin from his belt up front, slightly tilted toward his more private parts.. Original sheath to the right as a comparison.

The next gentleman wanted a scoutcarry-sheath...a fun but quite challenging sheath to make.
