Heavy Duty Kydex + Leather for Swamprat Howling Rat LM

Extra Heavy Duty Kydex en Leather for Swamprat Howling Rat LM


My mission was to improve some stuff that I was not 100% happy about on my Ratweiler Sheath ( http://www.bladeforums.com/forums/showthread.php?t=553532). And to see if I was capable of doing that kind of sheath again.



Improvements:

• Retentionstrap has got a hole of very tough lappleather, which is more resistant to wearing out, and will last longer.
• Retentionstrap is easier to attach to the riflebutton.
• Screws are inserted during wetmolding, so the screws are sunken into the leather and there´s no space between leather and kydex.

For the rest it is the same as the Ratweiler sheath.. It’s very comfortable to use..
Hope you enjoy the pics..

Have a nice Day!!

Martin that looks incredible, like you melted the leather onto the knife. The strap looks good, the belt loop should be versatile, the crafting around the pommel looks great too. And I love the personal touch.

Thanks again, can't wait to see it.

Thanks mate!

It'll be hard to part, cause it's better then my own's..

I love the feel of this leather. The big surfaceses feel like velvet while the edge feels like hard rubbery wood.

Yeah!!
