Default Sheath Bonding

I bonded my Pro-finder sheath to my Lesch digger sheath with pop rivets. I used my soldering iron to melt the holes into the cordura. The lesch sheath has plenty of room but be sure to mark where you want your holes with the digger in the sheath. This is for a right handed user. This idea will work with a propointer sheath as well. When I get another Lesch, I will make one for my propointer as well since I have both. I put washers front and back to help prevent wear. Works like a dream and used materials/items I already had.

very cool idea. the one thing i hate about the lesche sheath is the way it collects dirt in the bottom.

I plan to get one of Buzz's Sheaths but this will tie me over for now. I have not had mine long enough for dirt to collect yet but I do see how that could be an issue. I'm enjoying it for now though.
