Kydex sheath for a Vic Farmer ???

Mike, Lord of the Spammers! · **on:** May 17, 2012, 04:31:23 PM

Back in the old days of Sosak over on Knife Forums, a chap called Spudly made a kydex sheath for a Vic Farmer which stored the sak with the blade either open or closed, and I was wondering if anyone did something similar, as I quite fancy that method of carry when in the woods myself

Any ideas anyone?

I've seen a guy selling somewhat similar sheaths he makes on eBay.

Not at all mate. Links to items that others might find useful is just fine.

Self promoting links to your own ebay listings would be a little more touchy.

How about making one from some PVC waste pipe Mike?

(Will find somewhere else to sell that piece of swamp... I mean, unique development opportunity, then.)

Swamp thing maybe?

Excellent work everyone, Mike started a thread and we derailed it immediately

Sparky415 · **Reply #7 on:** May 17, 2012, 09:18:59 PM

Not totally derailed

nuphoria · **Reply #8 on:** May 17, 2012, 09:21:28 PM

Tony, it would be inappropriate not to

However, you do make rather good sheaths out of pipe

Sparky415 · **Reply #9 on:** May 17, 2012, 09:23:30 PM

Give me a minute I'm a bit dizzy from the fumes $:-\$

Mike, Lord of the Spammers! · **Reply #10 on:** May 17, 2012, 09:47:12 PM

Thanks for the eBay link, I may well pursue that after payday

Wow a thread derailed, and one of mine no less! :d

Let me know how the project goes Tony, it's looking good already

Sparky415 · **Reply #11 on:** May 17, 2012, 09:50:41 PM

How big was the first one you saw Mike? This is looking huge

Mike, Lord of the Spammers! · **Reply #12 on:** May 17, 2012, 10:02:28 PM

It was pretty big;)

It was pretty large, but then it had to be as it was pretty much a fixed blade sheath

Mike, Lord of the Spammers! · **Reply #13 on:** May 17, 2012, 10:08:44 PM

And I apparently pretty much like to use the word pretty!

Sparky415 · **Reply #14 on:** May 17, 2012, 10:11:49 PM

How do you feel about suede and paracord?
I have finished it but I just want to tease you a bit

And don't get your hopes up too much this is the 'beater' version

(This won't be very pretty)

Mike, Lord of the Spammers! · **Reply #15 on:** May 17, 2012, 10:14:24 PM

Meh neither am I!

That'll make you a damn good usable sheath matey:) Certainly looks the part.

Sparky415 · **Reply #16 on:** May 17, 2012, 10:19:32 PM

What do you think?

I guess I better send it to you for testing

And I'm not responsible if you loose your SAK
I reckon you might want to add a bright orange lanyard to your Farmer before you use this in the woods

Mike, Lord of the Spammers! · **Reply #17 on:** May 17, 2012, 10:23:04 PM

Bloody hell that's damn quick work (but you've heard that before

) very impressive too!

I'll certainly be happy to send you some fundage for it mate!

Sparky415 · **Reply #18 on:** May 17, 2012, 10:29:04 PM

I hear that a lot

No worry’s it was just a bit of fun

(PM me your address please Mate)

Mike, Lord of the Spammers! · **Reply #19 on:** May 17, 2012, 10:29:58 PM

Pm incoming mate

AHB · **Reply #20 on:** May 17, 2012, 10:36:24 PM

Awww, this is exactly why I love MT.O...

Good work Tony..

Mike, Lord of the Spammers! · **Reply #21 on:** May 17, 2012, 10:37:58 PM

This is a great place isn't it

Sparky415 · **Reply #22 on:** May 17, 2012, 10:52:17 PM

Just don't come running to me when you cut all your fingers off running around the woods with an open SAK

Mike, Lord of the Spammers! · **Reply #23 on:** May 17, 2012, 10:54:33 PM

I'll have to get you to do a risk assessment for me first then lol

Mike, Lord of the Spammers! · **Reply #27 on:** May 17, 2012, 11:23:52 PM

Lol I'd not seen that!

Sparky415 · **Reply #28 on:** May 17, 2012, 11:30:24 PM
