I'm looking for some "pull-the-dot" belt loops to install on a sheath. I'm getting a CNC Bladewerkz semi-custom titanium tanto, and the sheath appears to not have any belt attachment on it. No big deal, since it actually leaves me open for a lot of options on attaching it to my person. I don't want to use a Teklok, since I want to sandwich the knife between my belt and my trousers. I found them at Blade Tech, for $9.95, but they want another $10 for shipping! I'm not paying $20 for 2 freaking belt loops. Anyone out there know of another source for some belt loops that won't overcharge me for shipping? |

looks easy to make...order in some kydex and a couple chicago style screws. You'd have enough to make probably 5-10 loops depending on how much kydex you get. use a hair dryer to heat the kydex to bend it over in a loop. Kydex runs 6.50 for a sheet of 12"x12" for the .90 thickness which is .03 off from what blade tech appears to have on the site. heres a website that i found when i googled kydex www.texasknife.com/store/s-pages/TKS_MainframeStore.htm |
I appreciate the heads up, but I've been working with kydex for a while now. It's the belt loops that I'm after. The ones available from Blade Tech are not kydex, but more of a very flexible plastic, almost rubberized. They would attach with a chicago screw, and have snaps for ease of wear and removal from a belt. I just really don't want to pay $20 for a $5 part. |

Check these suppliers - www.northcoastknives.com/ www.texasknife.com/ I don't know if they have what you want, but they do have parts for Kydex sheathes. |
