Suppressors Strider BN [custom kydex]

[pazzo]

I decided to run out and buy this Strider BN a few weeks ago. Unimpressed with the Eagle sheath (it is a great sheath, just not for what I want it for), I shipped it off to Mike Billman at Grindstone Cutlery in Fort Wayne, Indiana. Mike has done previous work for me and is top notch when it comes to kydex work. I have other kydex sheaths for other knives (Busse, etc...) made by the 'best' in the industry, and his work is definitely on top with them.

I chose green kydex on the front and black on the back, to go with the paracord wrapped handle. It matches perfectly.

I got Mike to have the sheath fitted for a Tek-Lok clip, Molle-Lok and his own custom belt clip.

Here's a few really quick pics. Enjoy

Incredible design. Please let us know how the retention works, and what you would do differently.

Very impressed!

Jeff,

I'm glad you like it. The knife is very secure in the sheath, as all knives with a kydex sheath should be.
I have it mounted on my pack in the upside down position, and feel very confident that it won't be going anywhere anytime soon

As of now I wouldn't change anything about the design. I helped design the shape and feel quite happy with it.

Do a search for prices online. They're fairly competitive.

Just picked up this pack today, custom made for ME, & sewn tactically in a tactical manner by a tactically thinking American born Canadian

It's the same pack as the one above, only in CADPAT, which is perfect for this area.
