Our sheaths are 3D printed from Sculpteo with an industrial-grade SLS 3D printer and solid grey PA12, and then polished through mechanical polishing to make them smoother to touch. They are tough, long-lasting, skin-safe, waterproof, flexible, and lightweight. The black sheaths are printed in white PA12 and then dyed in black. In our test, white PA12 and dyed sheaths outperform the already strong enough solid grey PA12. They are even more tough and soft. Sheaths in other colors are only available in our Shapeways store, https://www.shapeways.com/shops/edcest
PLEASE NOTE THAT DYED SHEATHS NEED EXTRA CARE AS THE DYE CAN BE TRANSFERRED TO STRAPS LIKE DENIM JEANS DO IN LONG-TERM CONTACT. ALSO, AVOID CONTACT WITH CHEMICALS, INCLUDING SANITIZERS. IT WILL BLEED
Since last year's Kickstarter campaign, we have updated the sheath design slightly. They are crowdfunded versions in Japan and South Korea. This new version has carved text inside that shows their size and the design is more edged and slightly bulky. You do not need to upgrade Kickstarter sheaths, as these are identical in functions and durability. If you want the Kickstarter version, please get in touch with us.
We recommend you get a customized sheath for your strap for the best user experience. Please leave a message with desired strap size(width, thickness) if your strap is not listed in the option. Then we will customize the model, upload it to our Shapeways store, and give you the order link. Choose general sizes(18mm, 20mm, 24mm, 26mm) if you want maximum compatibility. They fit up to 4mm in thickness, so if your strap is thicker than 4mm, please contact us.
This is not the first time I buy from Ultimatest and certainly won’t be the last. This tiny gadgets made great gifts for anyone.

excellent customer service
I needed a extra knife and pen holder so I reached out to Ultimatest and they without hesitation sold me exactly what I needed and shipped it express mail. I'm very happy with the product and service they offer.
Thanks for the review! Happy to help.

Lost my blade after two months
Only got to use it 2 months before the sheath started not retaining the blade as tight as it originally did. I really liked the blade design but sheath needs better retention.
Hello,
I'm sorry to hear that. When that happens, please pinch the front area where the bumps hold the blades after heating the sheath with a hair dryer for about ten seconds. It will come back even stronger.

I use this more than I use anything else that's considered an everyday carry.
Honestly I use this knife on my watch literally once a day if not more. This could be the greatest EDC item ever conceived or built especially the magna cut version. I haven't had to sharpen it once.
Thanks for the review. I wish I have another option like H1 or LC200N so that I can say the knife is a true stainproof.
