Just what the subject says, I have one unused Spec Ops sheath that I've been saving. Anyone who has already gotten their knife, will it fit?

My cc'd been dinged, no email yet! Need my fix soon. :)

Yes, it fits fairly well in a small Spec Ops Combat Master sheath. Not very snug, but a pretty good fit. That's the sheath I'm going to use for mine until I get around to making Kydex for it.

I'll post a picture tomorrow if I can find the time.
 
It's very easy to snug up the kydex liner. You can do it with a hair dryer or with boiling water. Just don't overheat with the hair dryer or leave it in the water too long.
 
How long do you have to soak or warm the knife
before it swells enough to fit snugly?

I recommend you keep dipping the knife for 30 second durations until you get the result you want.

Don't give up. Sometimes, it can take 8 or 9 hours before the knife plumps up.

Hey, keep that up long enough and we could get a fat version!
