Hey guys, I bought some .093 Kydex with eyelets from Tandy leather, I took the word of the lady at the store that the ones I was getting where the correct ones, started my first sheath earlier today and the eyelets are way to short

I'm using 1/4" X I don't know how long (packaging doesn't say)
I'm going to ask for free shipping on some new eyelets but I don't want to get the wrong ones again.

What do you guys recommend?

Thanks in advance
 
Tandy's Only has one length of the 1/4 in eyelets. So go with some from knifekits.
The tandy eyelets will wor with 2 pieces of .093 kydex but just barely.
I made my first sheath with them.

Worked out ok, except the first eyelets I didn't put close enough to the blade hence the staggered rivets.

I talked to the owner of my local Tandy store and he said that Tandy was just testing the sale of Kydex. So hopefully we will see alot more stock in the future. My store was selling it very fast. I explained to his about the eyelet problem also.
