Homemade Kydex.
   Here is a holster I cooked up using a bladetech paddle that I've found the most comfortable so far. I've been wearing this about 3 months now without any problems. Compared to my Bladetech and Fobus it sits about 1/2-3/4" closer to my side. I wore it most of the summer with only an untucked tee. |

I have seen links on how to make Kydex holsters in the past. Yours is a great example. It looks store bought to me. Maybe someday I will have to give it a try.

That looks sweet, can we get a few picks of it by itself to see how you got it to stay so close to the body?

   Some more pics of the Bladetech and mine side by side. You'll notice I didn't counter sink the chicago screws as deep as they did, just enough to where they don't contact the 9c. I also used a thinner Kydex. You'll notice mine is somewhat more narrow than BT's. |
