Survive sheaths....

[Uncle Timbo]

Gentlemen, are the kydex sheaths from Survive, Teklok compatible?

 

[chiral.grolim]

YES. Kiah makes all the kydex sheaths and they are top notch, would easily cost $40+ aftermarket. The slots and holes allow for a variety of Tek-Lok positions on every model.

My preference is to use an extension-piece that i hope to be offering on BF this September.

Thanks Brother!

Thanks Chiral. I'll add that when using a TL (or any other attachment setup), you'll want to either use washers between the screws and slots or flip the post so that it's on the outside. Small or conical screw heads can deform the slots..

How long on those 4.1 sheaths? It's like I have a rocket and zero fuel here!

I know it is more expensive and may not be what folks are looking for, but leatherman here on the forums offers leather sheaths for some S!K models: http://www.armoralleather.com/orders.xhtml

You could also contact another sheath-maker, kydex or leather, to work something out. It's rough having an awesome new tool and no easy way to carry it. Hopefully Kiah can kick up the pace

Thank ya brother! And yes! Thanks to Kiah I am currently getting them all patterned out and when I do I'll list them out and hopefully have some ready made basic leather sheaths.

Got backed up on other things. Working on 'em and should have them starting to roll out later in the week.

Thanks Kiah.

Leatherman, nothing personal but I kinda like the kydex sheaths. I'm looking to strap on a single mag pouch, load it full of survival goodies and then be able to strap on a knife AND the kitchen sink with it!

ALSO, anybody have some 4.1 black or camo Micarta slabs they want to sell or trade out for?

Got a fun solve for leather where I wanted to carry my 3.5 on my shoulder strap with a TL. Once finished I'll post up some photos.

Looks like S!K has some in stock... http://surviveknives.com/supplies/knife-handles.html

Copy that C.G! I'd like to wait until they have the sheaths also.

My 4.1 needs some britches..............

Murphy's law. They're starting to head out. Hope to have the whole batch wrapped up by the weekend.

Rock on, Kiah Thanks for the update :thumbup:

 

[Uncle Timbo]

I guess anything worth having is worth waiting for...

 

[Kiah]

Hope doesn't always play well with reality. S!K should have the majority by Monday with the exception of one color that I had to order more materials for. I know updates being pushed back is annoying, but doing what I can.
