What do you use to flare rivets on kydex sheaths in a proper manner? where can I get it?
I'm tired to smash mines...
thanks for your answers,
Xavier.

Rivets, or eyelets? I used an eyelet tool ("pince à poser des oeillets", I think).
While we're on this, where can I get some brass or copper pop-rivets?

Yes, you're right Keith, I was talking about eyelets. I have no idea about a place you could find copper or brass pop-rivets, they are all made from zinc or nickel alliage. Maybe you can try in a decoration shop, or a place where they have materials for old furnitures to restore.
Thanks for the advise anyway, I should have thought of that "pince a oeillets" ;)
Will you attend the Coutellia show at Thiers in may ?

Thanks, Dave. I'd forgotten that supplier (you posted a link a while ago).
That guy has dozens of fixtures; look in "Sortiment", then "Nagler".
For example, three different sizes of Sam Brown studs (Geværknapper).
I didn't find any pop-rivets, though :(
