Had no place to put my knife for easy access while riding so I used my CAD software to whip up a sheath. Decided to mount it to an existing bolt on the right side of my fork leg just behind the fairing for concealment.

Sent it to the 3D printer software then off to the machine to print one for each of my knives.

Final result is printing now so the video is the first revision. Decided to angle the sheath (sharp edge of the blade) toward the fork tube so my hand has a little more room to grab the handle.
