Post by: tomh on November 18, 2008, 09:50:00 PM

here is a small fighter I just finished up. It is about 5 1/2" in the blade. It will be getting a kydex sheath and heading for Afghanistan.

I know some of us hate kydex, but for a working knife it is fine in my book.
This is the belt sheath, and am working on a MOLLE compatible sheath that can go on his chest rig or warbelt. I should be done with it soon. Hopefully it will get to Wayne by Christmas.

Now the knife just needs a quick bead blast and some oil and she is gone!

I love kydex, in fact I outfit most of my knives with kydex.

It lasts a damn sight longer than leather & is impervious to just about everything I'd encounter.

Nice looking package you've put together.
