I started with a small pistol and a small fixed blade knife. Like I stated before I'm no professional, but I found that just jumping in there and mixing it up so to speak worked for me. As you know you can only read about something for so long for before you just have to try it. I also use a guarded optimistic ever evolving approach where I always try to learn more as I go. But trial and error has been a good instructor for me.

The best thing about Kydex is if you don't like what you made, you can throw it back in the oven for a do over (provided you haven't made any cuts or drilled any holes).

Just mix it up Kyo you will be amazed how easy it is. And if you want I have a crap "how to make stuff out of kydex" dvd I can mail you

-Good luck
