How To Make A Kydex Sheath Taco Style | Knife Making
Рет қаралды 98,371
4 жыл бұрынUp until recently I've been making pancake style kydex sheaths; however, in an effort to try something new I've ventured into making taco style kydex sheaths. I must say that I enjoy making the taco style sheath more. It's easier during the construction phase of the sheath since it stays together easily. I also like being able to add a sweet thumb ramp to the back of the sheath (not the thumbnail for this video doesn't show the thumb ramp I eventually put onto that sheath!). I hope yall enjoy this video, if you have any questions feel free to drop them in the comment section below.

Soo... what's better? Tacos or Pancakes!? 😜
@BCM1959 4 жыл бұрын
I'm thinking taco. At least for knives, guns might be better with pancake. Have to look at some more examples before locking my final answer.
@joshuamiller8506 4 жыл бұрын
Taco for sure. However I really depends on the type of blade, the and how you want to use it will depend on the type of sheath style

Great video from start to finish! I also noticed the blade oiling before taping and like that touch. Especially liked the “thumb-ramp” tutorial as well. I’m about to make my first sheath and this video has my confidence high! Is that .06 or .08 thickness and do you change your heating method depending on which you use? I noticed you go high heat to 285°. I’ve seen others do slow and low to 350°. Any pros and cons? Thanks man. Sorry if this has been answered elsewhere. 🤘🏻
