The joy of modern materials

Kydex rocks. I tried my hand at it for the first time a few days ago and it rocks. It's an extremely versatile material. No special tools are required. If you have a pillow, a board, a stove, a pair of scissors and a bic lighter you're good to go. (Well, ok. I used a pop riveter but they are cheap) Anything can be made with it. A person could make a Christmas ornament or a utensil organizer or some such thing. I, however, made a new knife sheath.

Get your kydex here.

you forgot to add that you must have a patient wife to let you spend ALL weekend making your sweet knife holder thing.

ALL weekend? Right.

And it's a sheath.
