DIY Kits for Building Sheaths and Holsters

Shop DIY kits and shells from CKK Industries for building knife sheaths and gun holsters at your own bench, in stitched leather or molded thermoform. Leather kits arrive pre-cut or pre-punched with waxed thread for sewing, while thermoform kits start from KYDEX®, BOLTARON® or HOLSTEX® sheet or a pre-formed KYDEX® shell.

Knife makers can start with the DIY Leather Sheath Kits, where fixed-blade kits run from a 5 inch blade up to a 12 inch filet blade. The same page has angled pouches for folding knives, a tomahawk sheath with a carry handle and a multi-tool pouch with a loop for a 2AA mini flashlight. Molded sheaths come from the DIY Thermoform Sheath Kits, where the finished sheath rides on a pre-formed belt loop, a DCL, soft loops for IWB wear or a Tek-Lok™. Sheet thickness is yours to pick in the CKK Belt Loop kit, with KYDEX® gauges between .060 and .125 inch to suit anything from a small knife up to a large blade.

Holster builders will find the DIY Leather Holster Kits sorted by gun make, from Glock® and Walther® to Beretta®, SIG® and the 1911. Each of those kits pairs pre-cut 8-9 oz cowhide with eyelets and mounting hardware, in styles such as belt clip, pancake, thumb break and mini slide. Molded designs live in the DIY Thermoform Holster Kits, where one-piece IWB and OWB taco-style kits sit beside a concealment build with a ModWing, a hybrid with a leather backer and a two-piece pancake with matched belt loops. The DIY QuickShell™, a pre-formed KYDEX® shell offered for select Glock®, Kahr®, Ruger®, S&W®, SIG® and Springfield® models, gives a head start on the shaping.

KYDEX®, BOLTARON® and HOLSTEX® form the same way, and HOLSTEX® adds a textured face such as Basketweave or Carbon Fiber for looks and grip. For a second opinion on which kit fits your build, tell us about your project.
