About Simple Little Life:
This channel has sort of turned (inadvertently) into a knife making channel. But the original idea behind what we wanted it to be is this description below:
Videos on our journey to homesteading. With a recent purchase of a little piece of the Alberta prairie, we're looking to sell our nice suburban home in search of a more meaningful life beyond chasing the "American dream" working for some big company and making someone else rich. It's not about the money, it's about getting the most value from the work I do to improving the life of my family.
Some preparedness, DIY, building quality things with your hands, guns, gear, and outdoor exploration.

Nice tip to improve upon the clip placement on knife sheaths. Great post! Thanks.

@mrsaskriders 5 лет назад

Thank you Jeremy for sharing that and it is a great tip that I will use. I started making Kydex sheaths just a few days ago. Your idea is awesome. Smart dude!

Mate, once again...great little vid...great idea...and very generous of you to share....as we would say over here in Australia..."you're a bloody champion mate"

@Simplelittlelife 7 лет назад

haha, wel thank you very much. Really appreciate the compliment and I'm glad it might be helpful. Ideas in your own mind are useless. Sharing them is where they take on any value at all. At least that's my take on it. Cheers!

@tomsdreamshopworx 7 лет назад

1st! I love making jigs. Well done!

@Simplelittlelife 7 лет назад

haha congrats on being the first! Yeah, I hear you. The thing I have to be careful of is not to get too carried away with the jigs and still focus on making whatever it is I'm making. Sometimes I make a mess of jigs for every step of a widget, but then realize I haven't made any widgets:)

@choppersFL 5 лет назад

Thank you!

@genin69 7 лет назад

Pretty clever.. Id make a jig that is about 10 inches in length, that way you can make about 5 of these clips in one go from one sheet of kydex, then just cut them out.. thanks for sharing

@clockwork421 6 лет назад

I was thinking the same thing too

@DanZenz 6 лет назад

Great idea. Just a thought, if you made the grove an 1 3/4 wide instead of 1" you could horizontal carry if you don't mount the accessory clip. I might try this for my leatherman.

@Docprepper 5 лет назад

Man I like it!

@05dcummins 7 лет назад

what size Chicago bolts are you using? they sell a few lengths. thank you great idea.

@leebarker4207 6 лет назад

Nice

@JohnCinOz1 7 лет назад

You just keep knocking out great content Jeremy, thank you! Could you specify what/where to get the small fasteners you used to attached the standoff part to the sheath itself? They don't look like rivets... Cheers, John

@Simplelittlelife 7 лет назад

Hey John, thank you very much. I use Chicago screws to mount the stand-off to the sheath. I buy those also from knifekits.com They're really slick. Also I usually use a little bit of medium strength thread locker on them just to make sure they don't back off un-wantedly. Cheers!

@JohnCinOz1 7 лет назад

Simple Little Life Thanks Jeremy, appreciate the info.

@boog3690 10 месяцев назад

I've been doing something very similar. I use a tech lock and mount it for scout carry then a make a dangler insert. That way whatever way I want to carry is just a simple adjustment. No need to pull it all apart.

@forester057 3 года назад

Genius!

@turkeycreekknives133 5 лет назад

Are the tail pieces 2” on each side of stand off to mount eye let’s

@johnbaldingham 4 года назад

you're a wizard

@ShelleyRaskin 7 лет назад

Need to try kydex one of these days...

@Simplelittlelife 7 лет назад

yeah, it's actually not all that bad. Actually when I consider the end product and the relatively low cost of working with it, it's a pretty sweet option to have. Give it a try! You'll be surprised how easy it is. Cheers!

@shaneanthony3692 5 лет назад

nice video. Question, I need a clip attachment for a kiku 4.1 kydex sheath. I do not have the material to make my own. Do you know where I might be able to get one. Thanks

@turkeycreekknives133 5 лет назад

What size is the Chicago screws that you use to attach the belt clip and your stand offs ? Thanks for your time

@clockwork421 6 лет назад

Are the rivets #6 or #8 on this sheath in the video.

@turkeycreekknives133 5 лет назад

What was thickness of the kydex used or is that not that big a deal like the design I built small bird / trout knife sheath was to bigger than blade had to find good belt attachment now I have the way to go thanks

@SharpWorks 7 лет назад

Great tip! I like how it can be ambidextrous. What fasteners are you using to hold that to the sheath?

@Simplelittlelife 7 лет назад

I'm using Chicago screws to mount that to the sheath. I buy those also from knifekits.com Cheers!

@SharpWorks 7 лет назад

Simple Little Life thanks! Looks really nice

@oliverkoehne7978 5 лет назад

I guess this is a stupid question but what screws do you use? on knifekits there are so many options and I have no clue what t look for to mount the clip and the extra piece of kydex you demonstrate.

@grumpyoldwizard 7 лет назад

👍

@misterdeluxia5948 7 лет назад

I think i saw this from i dont remember where but i saw somethinh similar to this great vid btw

@Simplelittlelife 7 лет назад

Thanks

@adamadamadamadam709 6 лет назад

What type of screws did you use to attach that to the sheath?

@austinwheeler3679 6 лет назад

To my knowledge they are called chicago screws.

@jerrydonquixote5927 2 месяца назад

Not a bad idea!

@sloanIrrigation 5 лет назад

Search for belt clips, kydex belt clips, knife belt clip but those clips did not show. Can you link please?

@herculesrockefeller4584 6 лет назад

What kind of knife is that?

@nightwalker2830 7 лет назад

can u use that horizontal carry as well instead of vertical

@josephrector8735 7 лет назад

nightwalker2830 you could easily modify the size and orientation to accomodate this...

@Simplelittlelife 7 лет назад

Yup, you could do that. Also this can be changed up quite a bit to match you particular needs. Cheers!

@longviewstud26 4 года назад

Can you buy thoes somewhere???

@sockdolager3884 7 лет назад

Sorry for dumb question. Is that for IWB, OWB, or both?

@thewhiskeycowboy-official 7 лет назад

IWB = inside-the-waistband OWB = outside-the-waistband both = both/either

@chrisshreve1736 3 года назад

Thanks I just wish you would have told us about the screws or rivets or whatever fasteners how do they work? I am new to this, you know what and how to do this but I don't. I understand the eyelets but you the fasteners don't go through the sheath but I have no idea what fasteners to buy or anything how they work, you know because you build them but I wish you would have added that so I am back to square one with a sheath with no belt clip...

@chrisidk728 7 лет назад

have u ever made afolding knife

@Simplelittlelife 7 лет назад

Nope, not yet. Soon though.

@shaneburns6589 4 года назад

what are those screws called on ebay ?????

@zacharylevan4828 4 года назад

I've been able to find all of the tools and pieces for this setup online except for the bolts you used to attach the clip to the rest of the sheath, could you or anyone else point me in the right direction, thanks!

@jesse7350 4 года назад

Amazon.....type kydex chicago screws and vwala

@josh88113 3 года назад

Here I am over a year after watching the first time for a refresher

@greenhood116 6 лет назад

what clip is it

@Dimitri8907 4 года назад

Alex Nesbitt I would also like to know, did you ever find out?

@josesalcedo7995 7 лет назад

Where can I get kydex?? Is it expensive?

@billt7283 6 лет назад

Jose salcedo eBay. Well it’s not super cheap, and just one clip cost just as much as the kydex

@samdineen1492 7 лет назад

can you add links to all materials and components plz

@Simplelittlelife 7 лет назад

Yeah no prob. (probably should have added that in the first place). Everything I buy for my Kydex (including my rivet press and the foam I use in my Kydex press) is from knifekits.com. I've been really happy with their service shipping and the prices. Cheers!

@andrewjones3020 7 лет назад

Simple Little Life I could not find ur Lil press

@LucidDreamer54321 3 года назад

Former aircraft mechanic here. I would call that a standoff bracket.

@NardDogg78 3 года назад

can I just buy a couple of these fom you? I could even drill the holes myself

@lclalpha7314 7 лет назад

Wow no dislikes!!!

@willh8760 Год назад

If anyone can make me this for the monkey thumper by fox knives I’ll buy it I just don’t have the time to make it myself but I need one cause the ulti plate doesn’t work

@melitonrodriguez7004 3 года назад

Looks nice , But that handle probably stables you , lol

@Koseenanat Год назад

Great because I’m not the type of guy to wear belts all the time and the sheaths that come with them are mostly only for belts

@j13ohnnyv 2 года назад

If I send you a knife can you make me a Sheath

@Renaldo135 5 лет назад

Those clips suck. The knife sheaths will come out along with the knife upon drawing same. Use belt loops or a static line tied off to bottom whole of the sheath. There are exceptions like "bravo concealment" clips and "ulti-clips" that clamp on to your actual pants but why risk it? Clips suck.
