Scott Gere (scgere@AOL.com) does nice sheaths for the swick. I had mine done to accept a G clip for belt carry. I have never gotten into neck knives.Buendia518 wrote:Hey do most folks wear th swick as a neck knife? I'm thinking about buying one of these and of course I'll need to think about how to carry it.
If anyone here makes kydex sheaths or knows of someone good and afforable please let me know. I do hope that's not a breach of the WTB ban on the forums.
Thanks
So many knives, so few pockets... :)

The Swicks make great little belt knives. One of the Swick 1's is on my belt most of the time when I'm working in the garage. The little Wharncliffe blade is great for utility use. I've done my own handles and sheaths on the leaf blade Swick 2's as well and they make really nice EDC fixed blades. They disappear and stay out of the way as a horizontal belt carry.Buendia518 wrote:Hey do most folks wear th swick as a neck knife?

I'll be passing on this run only because I've put handles on my Swick 1's without the extra pin holes and I don't really need more than 2 of each. Others deserve a chance to use these wonderful blades.
42 Spyderco fixed blades and counting...

I'll be buying at least one. This looks like the ability to hold onto it and still use the hand somewhat would be VERY useful to me 300 feet up a cell tower. I'l stuck without internet until at least a few hours after they go on sale though so hopefully they don't go too fast.

I got jittery inside when I read Sal's comments on the leaf blade. Might have to get both versions now.

Phew. Got mine. Was super late to work this morning so I couldn't get online in time. But looks like I'm good to go. Now we wait.
Sal mentioned on blade forums that he is looking into getting some sheaths made. I wonder how that will work.

Same here, $99.90 begged for a white bug decal to be added in. Now I just need some kydex.xceptnl wrote:2 inbound with some swag.
Can't wait for the leaf blade, anyone have a lead on when it'll be released?

If anyone is going to make handles for these hit me up. I have zero scale making abilities and would really like one made!

I did too - even though I just bought a bug lapel pin from bladehq on a different order :) .xceptnl wrote:Ha ha, I actually picked up the bug lapel pin. I already have lots of stickers. (I may try my hand at kydex on this one.)
I was running late today, got to work a few minutes after they went on sale, and I was very happy that they were still available.
Which Knife, A or B? get Both! (and C, D and E) :)
