My Swicks Arrived

#1

Post by GeorgeMaggos »

I was able to score some of the newly released Swicks. Thanks Spyderco!

I needed a way to carry them so I talked with Scott Gere & he said he would make some for my Swicks & give me a bunch of carry options

These little Swicks really rock & the 2 new sheaths Scott made me give me every way to carry them I ever wanted.

[CENTER]Thanks Scott I appreciate it Your the best!

Great pics. I just got a Swick as a Bday gift. Nice little fixed blade. Talked to Scott earlier today about a sheath. Now I can't wait to get one.

The G-clip will attach for horizontal or vertical it appears, is that the case?

You wont be dissapointed Scott's sheath work is the best & I have not had time to move the position around yet I believe it works either way Scott can answer that for sure though :)

Great pics George, happy you like them, thanks again. The sheath can be carried in numerous positions and is not a friction sheath. The sheath locks around the top of the finger hole and has no drag on the blade, no rattle when in sheath and a very secure fit. The thumb push off works great for an easy release of the swick from the sheath.

Great pics George. I just received my sheaths today (wonder how you got yours yesterday, you must have usps on your payroll :rolleyes :) I wanted to post a couple of pictures of how it would look wearing these Swicks in Scott's very nicely made sheaths(tongue twister). Thanks again Scott they are better then I could have expected. And thanks for the super quick shipping! In the last pic you can see my Bearded Dragon admiring my new Swick.

I need a sheath for my new swick and those look great! I have no experience with the g-clip. Can it be used IWB? Is it removable?

Thanks for sharing your photos and especially the sheath system you are using. I'm still on the fence about picking up the Swick but with the lower cost and now the sheath you pictured, I'm that much closer!

Congrats George! What will be your preferred carry-option?

Are you able to tell me what the four-digit number under the production codes means (1328)? Both boxes have the same imprint.

Thanks. Bearded Dragons are a perfect pet for kids, they are very friendly. I am down to 2 of them now but used to have 8. There is nothing like them
