I have a few knives that have nylon sheaths. I am really not happy with the nylon sheath. Besides keeping costs down, they breathe and allow the water to evaporate off the knife to prevent it from corroding. However, I am not really happy with a couple of them, and have been investigating sheaths online, and am having a hard time finding one that will fit my knives, so I am investigating kydex and making the sheath myself.
Here are some of the resources I have found that might help me, and maybe you:

Well, this is on the list of stuff to learn to do, even though it looks simple enough. Just Google “Kydex Sheath” and see a ton of results that come up.
