I need some help on some kydex stuff.
I have found a few items on ebay but not sure it is what I need.
Say I want to add or replace a eyelet in a kydex sheath,what tool and eyelets do I need to do it.
I am looking for cheap ones as I am not making sheaths just a fero rod holder or an extra eyelet from time to time.
Most of the kydex stuff I have is .80 or .93 and the eyelet needs to work with a large tec lock.
I was thinking of ordering these two in 1/4 in
Am I on the right track?

I use that setter, but those eyelets are not long enough for two layers of .80 kydex. They are thinner material than what most makers use for kydex too. I'm not sure if there are any suppliers here on BF, maybe someone that knows more than I will chime in.:thumbup:
 
Thanks.
I just ordered 1/4 in eyelets and a hand setter from knifekits.com
Everything I found searching about this makes me think that was the best route.
