these work but they can get hot with all that leather. My IWB 1911 holsters use a single belt clip and the Kydex extends above the hammer on the skin side, it makes it easy to re-holster 4 o'clock carry (just behind the hip bone). I'm also using one of David Browns standard sheaths on my TGULB for IWB carry and it works great.

Did something kinda similar awhile back. Dual knife carry that breaks down. That way you can use the sheaths individually. Rig had different length straps to adjust ride height

Was a fun build actually
 
I’m sure a Kydex pro could make one with the back Kydex piece extending to cover the handle. Maybe just up to the base of the ring. Leaving the ring fully exposed for an easy draw.

My very first 1/2kydex 1/2leather Mutant was exactly this :)

I think Jaxx has one of my first ones for a TG

it was not very popular, with leather on the back.

Everyone wanted the leather to be the show side.

so that is what they became.

Secondly with a pointy blade the leather is soft and the point of the blade could and will get stuck in the "body shield" at best, if it does not go through the "shield" into you !!!

Now a kydex body guard I have done that a few times over the years.

and it does work , harder to make but it works.

Usually with as sharp as these Busse knives are you really want to see what you are doing when re-sheathing.

Think of it this way;

"Drawing a weapon is a 100% times more important than re-sheathing/re-holstering.
The fight should be over by the time you put the weapons away. "

Those are beautiful! I was thinking of a pancake Kydex ( full Kydex both sides) attached to leather backer with clips attached to the leather.
You do make a good point about re-sheathing. Doesn’t need to be fast.
 
Really gonna need a War Boar 2 so we can all get matching pairs.

Can you imagine that stonewash and chamfering on a WB2?
 
I had no idea these were dinging or shipping until just a bit ago.

I haven’t been dinged yet but now I’ll be watching my email
