Nice review and pics, thanks for sharing <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

Personally I was pretty disappointed in my kydex from the yard (for the MOD);

-the knife doesn't even fit in it at all, unusable
-the mouth is too big, and down inside it's too small (can't get the knife in)
-the loop was too big (cumbersome)
-not near the quality of the blade it holds
-our custom makers prices are not much more

So for the Price to Performance ratio, it didn't hit the mark for me. Other Yard-rigs may be better,
I don't have them all, but from the pictures I've seen, I don't know.

Having a drain hole also means another opening for moisture to get IN, something that's debatable.

I commend the Yard for offering it, but I was surprised at it's quality and fit.
just my views...
