tec loc supply

where can I get more information on Tec Loks, ie where to get them, how to plan it into a sheath etc. Thanks Dan

http://www.blade-tech.com would be a good start; I think TKS have them too.

As for using them - look at a commercial sheath to see how, and go from there. http://www.ckdforums.com/showthread....&threadid=4237 shows Jens using them, too. The holes on the large TekLoks are (IIRC) 3/4" separation; the rubber washers go between the back of the sheath and the TekLok body to provide a stand-off. They're quite natty, albeit expensive in comparison to making your own loops.

On a related note, I have found a UK supplier for the material AKA Concealex - Boltaron 4330

Unfortunately, as Concealex is a TM (owned by BladeTech), the supplier can't sell me the stuff calling it Concealex - which I would assume means I can't offer Concealex sheaths without infringing.

Has anyone else had this problem, and how do you handle selling sheaths made from "I can't believe it's not Concealex"?

Hi PS...

I offer my sheaths as made from "Concealex".

I haven't switched to calling it Boltron as to not confuse my customers more then is needed.

I don't think there will be a problem using the name concealex, as long as you use the TM or C mark with it.
