Clint - yes, I have a Waki coming! Originally I was going for a black/black combo, but I decided on a sage/tan micarta one instead. I have a longer piece of leather which I plan on dying a little later today, so it shouldn't take me too long to make pants for my Waki! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> Good deal. I would like to see pics of the sheath when you are done. I got the tan and sage combo too. I guess I am a little anxious since this is my first real sword--I had a wood one my grandfather made me when I was a little kid.

A kydex Waki sheath would be nice and light, but I like the look, smell, and feel of leather for sheaths. Besides, how many Samurai used kydex?!!? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> Hmm, not many I would think. But it would not surprise me to know that some of their descendants helped invent kydex.....

Enjoy every sandwich.
