Just finished this one up during some free time at work today. I made it for IWB, and it's also capable of accepting a tek-lok. I think the tan compliments the muddy SK well. I did find out that the screw on the IWB loop will scratch the paint on the rivets when screwing them in since it's a metal to metal contact. No biggie though, since this one is mine. :thumbup: Learnin' me sumthin' new every time I make a new sheath. Seems like there's a lot of kydex going around lately. Figures too, since there was a wait when I needed some. :p

Enjoy the pics and let me know what you think. I also threw the finished Lep Warden sheath in there for good measure.

Thanks Kenny. I actually think it's pretty fun working with the stuff. I got a bunch of ideas for some of my larger blades that I like to use when I'm camping. I've been searching the net for some certain supplies, and I think I got a good place.

The nice thing is that kydex is pretty forgiving if you screw up. Just for me to be able to do my own knives is saving me a bundle in shipping and insurance $$. I'll still get some stuff made from the regular sheath makers though. Their work speaks for itself. :thumbup:

Real Nice - You just reminded me I have one of those tan keys stuffed somewhere in the safe. Forgot I had it. MD
 
Awesome Dan, I've never been brave enough to tackle kydex bending... Kydex is really nice for those edc sized blades, especially iwb.
 
Hey, Dan--Really nice work! You might inspire me to try kydex one of these days!! :D Good job!

Those are nice looking sheaths. Very cleanly done!
 
Very nice work. I love the smooth lines and the color combo. I've been wanting to give bending a shot. Need a sheath for my Rat Shaker.
 
Thanks guys, I appreciate the kind words. If anyone has any suggestions or hints, please feel free to pm me and let me know. Same goes for anyone that has any questions, let me know and I'll help out if I can. I still gots lots 'o Busses/Rats/Dogs to do as well as a bunch of other knives and non-knife stuff, so I should get plenty of practice. :D
