Man, that's a really slim S5 sheath. Very nice work. Is it glued together?
Also, you can just go ahead and send that Nuc EDC over here any time you want <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

MM It was a regular sheath. Like the S-5 infi i made. The rivots looked like crap how i postioned them so i went a trimming. Tried acrylic glue, didnt work super glue worked. Have brown electrical under the wrap. DO NOT PUT a knife inside sheath before glue holds.. HA HA!! The shiny stuff on the blades is vaseline that i coat all my blades with. Not only coats the sheath but it brings out the color of the micarta.

Myke. The knife is a nuclear edc. Are you wanting to try the Kydex at home/ work ? The temperature wont be a problem even with a standard oven. Having a good way to press the the kydex down around the blade can be a problem.

Having a good way to press the the kydex down around the blade can be a problem. TM,I'll be doing it at home in the oven.I've read up on sheath making on BF.Lot of good info there.I've got some 3/4" foam that withstands the heat and 2x8s for the press.I like the clam shell style like steelnuts.I saw someones with shallow cut outs in the sides for wrapping cord,looked like a good idea. So super glue works on kdex huh.I was wondering about a way to attach dif. colors/designs like some of David Browns.
