Rivets for kydex

3wolves · Oct 1, 2008

Hi guys,
I have a bunch of stuff I want to make kydex sheaths for. Are there any rivets that don't require special tools to install?
Thanks,
3wolves.

You could just use the Chicago screws. Make sure you use the rubber washers with them.

They have an inexpesive hand setter over at knife kits.
I have not used one.......

Thats exactly what I was looking for, I don't need anything besides this and some rivets right?

I have one, I have used it with success. One good slam with a hammer and the rivit is set. I would recomend it.
