I can’t imagine the use case is for this … and I don’t care because this thing is a design, engineering, and craftsmanship marvel. Congratulations on completing the project!

[@Knife_guy]

Always pushing your skills to the max for your customers, excellent job. Very smart to utilize QD sling attachment points. I’m sure that will become a popular request going forward.

[@panganaranga]

Just made some sheets for my adventure craft. Came up with a sling design as well, but somehow very different. Will have to put in some more work, but will be public very soon. Maybe Jacob from EK&T will show something.

[@richardfagen1186]

U sir are a master @this craft... im so stoked for my build !!!!!

[@coldsteelcollector808]

Hands down one of the coolest things I’ve ever seen!!! Another well done job BBCK!!! 🤙🏼🤙🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

Awesome setup man! Very impressive! Thanks for sharing!

[@chrisgonzales1615]

Excellent work as usual. Looks great man that’s one hell of a system

[@malcolmpearson5615]

Looks awesome love the breakaway chest rig. Can't wait to see how my system will look.

[@nomex8461]

great use of QDs!

OUTSTANDING, it is on my bucket list.

Many interesting ideas are springing to mind. Thanks for the innovation! Peace Be The Journey!

Great design, Micha!

Very intuitive design, love it!

DAMN Marc are you trying to take down a Halo Spartan with that setup LMAO FMR

[@Flyboyminer]

Brother, you are absolutely amazing at designing sheath systems; that flow as a practical unit. God bless you for sharing all this knowledge.

[@BlackBearCustomKydex]

Thank you 👊 Really appreciate the kind words and the view! God bless you brother!

[@charlesdavis3923]

Qd sockets are the bomb. Awesome work

[@Wichitan]

It's magnificent! Completely unusable, but magnificent! 🤣🤣🤣

[@BlackBearCustomKydex]

LMAO 😂🔥 YYYYEEEAAAHHHH... it's pretty unwieldy. I personally wouldn't carry something that heavy. But I wouldn't call it unusable. More like dramatic and inconvenient lol

[@Wichitan]

@@BlackBearCustomKydex I can go with that!

[@johnpmcgeejr]

That’s fucking sick dude.

[@preparedsurvivalist2245]

Pro tip: 1.25x the speed on this video, you won't notice. I also like how he says it may not look complicated, when it's literally the most complex sheath system I've not only ever seen in my entire life, but could even imagine.

[@BlackBearCustomKydex]

😂 I REALLY need to do shorter videos for my viewers.

[@jasonwoodard8132]

Fuckin awesome! I need that in my life!

[@rabbittoocute1931]

Wow good job realy cool

[@jj-iv3gr]

You inspired me to build my first kydex sheath. Now building my 2nd one. I tried making it as bad ass as this one your showing.

[@BlackBearCustomKydex]

That's AWESOME! I'd love to check out your work! Feel free to email or text me if you ever want input or feedback. Go make good stuff!

[@jj-iv3gr]

Here already! Woot

[@BlackBearCustomKydex]

HAHAHA first blood!

[@Son_Of_Scotland]

@@BlackBearCustomKydex Micha i don't even know what to say about this rig. Not only getting everything your client wanted on there but the practicality and the God damn fit and finish is outstanding. I think I'm rethinking this Kydex biz. Im a horrible salesman, I'm telling everyone if you want something seriously amazing to go to you! Lmao. Thank you buddy you are absolutely next level.

[@BlackBearCustomKydex]

LOL well dude you just keep doing the best work you can and you'll find your style and the clients will find you. Put the art first and everything else will fall in place!

[@zeuqramjj2002]

The middle blade should probably be canted up on the main rig just a bit or set one screw towards the tip so it’s handle is out of the way. I would also carry them edge up so they’re not riding into the sheath and getting prematurely dulled. I am a wheelchair user so finding the best way to carry that is not always on a belt has always been my goal even when weight doesn’t matter like that beauty of a rig!!

[@BlackBearCustomKydex]

Agreed. Sometimes the angle I end up going with is what's most practical, other times it's what is most conducive for the build itself, meaning alignment of holes to physically assemble it all.

[@paulponce6338]

I want that !!! Super cool !!!

[@BlackBearCustomKydex]

Email for details 😁

[@fightmilk8613]

That is so cool.

[@ShowemRight]

Now thats Dope.

[@emarr3720]

I want 2 & I'm left-handed to boot. One for my Tops knives the other for my Bark Rivers BUT I feel that the sheaths are not heavy and bulky enough so I'll order them leather clad. All kidding aside, I'd like to order. This is very practical. I just recently tried to EDC a leatherman wave, flashlight, & tactical pen in a scabbard & it looked good but it was too heavy, kept pulling my pants down so I stopped. Will you be at Blade Show this year?

[@paulo89138]

I loved it, practical and functional, is there a possibility to be right handed instead of left handed serve?

[@BlackBearCustomKydex]

Definitely. I do full custom work, and most of my customers are right handed

[@ferminespino9903]

I think the whole settup wish I had it when I was in the Marine corps I n 1979

[@ferminespino9903]

Excuse my spelling I think it is awsome

[@alamedacustomholsters]

Beautiful 👊

[@panganaranga]

Just got into kydex making after I got an Adventure Craft. The kydex was too big and heavy for me for the small knive. Ended with a similar sling design but speced down and a very simple and light design. Went through some prototypes and got some finctioning sheets now. But that fit and finish on your sheets is awsome. Guess there is a lot of homework and toolmaking left till I get there.

[@BlackBearCustomKydex]

It's an adventure for sure! Always finding new ways to improve the end product or process... Feel free to reach out anytime to shoot the breeze about making sheaths! And stay tuned on my channel, I'll be announcing a how-to channel very soon for sheath making!

[@panganaranga]

@@BlackBearCustomKydex Yes, just finished a new taco dedicated press with a strech aramid fabric to eliminate the hump on the spine. Did quiet well in the first test. Today I try to build a preclamp system I can use by foot to close the press enough to keep everything in place till I put the clamps on. I did custom saddles for a decade. So I have a strong sewing mashine. 2 weeks ago a friend of mine visited me with his hunting knives as he heard I started with kydex. He had an idea for a kydex/webhing add on to the kydex he made for his cold steel hunter master, to make it a belt sheet. Instead of riviting the webbing to the kydex I just sewed the webbing on the kydex. Worked perfect, perfect seam as well. Maybe something you didnˋt know and just in case you might need to solve a problem like this. I use a Pfaff 145 H3 walking foot sewing mashine, 140 needle 40 yarn.

[@BlackBearCustomKydex]

@@panganarangaI've been looking at heavy duty sewing machines for a while now. I currently don't have anywhere to put one, so that's the biggest obstacle, but eventually I'll get one.

[@panganaranga]

@@BlackBearCustomKydex Donˋt know what you really want to do with it and what you mean with heavy duty mashine. I f you think about a shoe repair mashine, they really take a lot of space. If you want to sew over half an inch thickness you will most likely need it. But you might consider a colums leather/upholstery mashine. They are normal industrial mashines but the column gives you the same freedom sewing on objects.

[@BlackBearCustomKydex]

@@panganaranga I'll look into it. I just meant I don't have much space in my shop, and that I've broken needles on a normal sewing machine trying to sew some of the nylon I use. So I assumed I'd need something heavy duty or industrial to get anything done

[@bendeleon4696]

I wood like one of does how much are they going for but I need it left-handed

[@damage3538]

that thing is badass

[@tracymilgrim616]

Would have looked better with a Black Bear Tactical Concepts. Tin !!

[@ssunfish]

Break-awzy chest rig is very interesting as well as the compass and light on a kydex rail.. where are the slings from?

[@BlackBearCustomKydex]

Slings are made by Beachin Tactical, final assembly by me

[@robross1828]

Hey man I love the the stuff you make. Very cool. I've been learning so much from watching your videos and have improved my skills very much because of you. Thank you for sharing your work. Made a small knife for a necklace wear. I wanted to dress it up a little with a compass and really like the one you use. Any chance you can share with me where you get them. Thanks for all you do.

[@BlackBearCustomKydex]

Absolutely! My go-compass is the Suunto Clipper, which can be found on a ton of online shops. Usually I get mine through Amazon for $15-20. I'm probably going to switch to a different supplier soon, though, because I find it hard to support a company that gives China billions and billions in sales (most of what Amazon has now seems to be Chinese, much of which violates American patent laws)

[@robross1828]

@@BlackBearCustomKydex I need to learn how to take much better photos because they don't come close to doing my knives any justice as seeing them in person. Making the product amazingly is the easiest part. Figuring out how to marketing is is way harder and much less enjoyable.

[@BlackBearCustomKydex]

@@robross1828 social media content and a decent camera phone is all I use. Can be a bit underwhelming but it gets the job done!

[@domdc]

Man.. am looking at your stuff since a wile now and been thinking a lot.. and this el chete sheath is pretty close to what i was thinking to do in all black but with also a molle plate on top so i can attach my esee6 molle sheath on it and a pouch. And all this because im lefty too.!! You taking orders anytime soon.??

DAMN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@jj-iv3gr]

Dude that's a survivalist wet dream. Holy accual fuck. I know how to make the kydex sheath but how can I do something like that I mean mounting accessories to compliment the main knife.

[@BlackBearCustomKydex]

I won't say it's easy, but with a little imagination and a lot of trial and error, Kydex is a craft that allows for a TON of new ideas to fluorish!

[@Laurarium]

All cool, but the weight is probably unforgiving😢

[@BlackBearCustomKydex]

Yeah that was a heavy setup for sure. Personally, I don't mind heavy rigs. God knows my legs are used to carrying around some extra weight, both from my army days in the form of rucks, and presently in the form of blubber 😆

[@Laurarium]

@@BlackBearCustomKydex you know, heavy weight and unsatble heavy weight are different. 8 pounds hangging on one side of my belt is not good, no matter how strong I am, it just pulls and drags all the time. I onced tried to carry a log, it sored my shoulders, but it’s just heavy. I can’t bare something quiet heavier than my HPG kit bag dangling on my belt! it probably would strip off my pants!

[@BlackBearCustomKydex]

@@Laurarium I'm with you. I would never carry a heavy setup on my belt. Baldric is my carry of choice for something like this
