I've been busy, check it out!

First up is a Pesh Kabz Backpacker in Nitro-V steel. Convertible design with removable scales and a cord wrap ready handle underneath. I worked my butt off redesigning the sheath and working out a new sheath process, it is slim and easy to add to a belt with the built in loop.

Here's a Prototype Trainer for my Backpacker model in Glow material. I'm making an orange one in super durable PETG material next.

How about some glow lanyard beads too! I have a few new bead designs out in various materials from glow, color changing, hemp and all sorts of cool materials.

Sheaths... minimalist and versatile. I have worked out a differential heating method for Kydex and can mold all sorts of new features like the integral belt loop as a result.

Here's a Prototype carry system for Kydex sheaths. My goal is a dependable, versatile system with no moving parts to break. I have made a bunch of these to get to this point! I just got in the material to make the real ones yesterday... yes shop made by me as usual!

Love the new pointy one, Daniel, and the sheaths are sweet!
You're molding that in? Or pre-milling and then differentially molding?

Milling first then molding. The differential heat doesn't distort the loop or holes. Most appreciated!
 
Raptor Holstex!

I have made over 4000 sheaths from Kydex and I have to say that Holstex rocks! I'm probably going to switch to using it, I really like the way it molds and finishes.
