Obviously, I would have the belt over top of the kama. Didn't know if that was an approvable method or not.
Thanks,

I used Velcro on the belt and Kama. That way I can make minor adjustments and if it needs to be washed it can.

Ok. I'm waiting on my helmet. This is where I'm at with everything else. Is there anything that I should change or adjust?

For it being the kit that it is not a bad build. You can add either velcro to the ab section to let the belt rest or a notch tab. This will help from a gap forming between an plate and belt.

Looks good. I agree with Stephen, get some Velcro or something on the belt and ab piece so it doesn't move and create that gap. The Kama came out good and sits correctly. You should be good as long as the helmet is proper.

So, I screwed up on the belt. The belt that I have has sizing holes and a rivet. Both of which are verboten on the CRL. So, where has everyone else found belts? I looked at Tandy Leather, but they only go up to 1.5" in width.

Have you been declined, as they seem to be approving belts with the rivet. Not sure abut the extra hole though, That probably is not approvable.

Check my build thread for how I did mine.

I used https://www.facebook.com/TiggwolfCreations/

They have the grooved style as well. Just need to ask for it without the rivet.

Submitted my updated pics to my MLO over the weekend. They said that they were posting them on the GML board here for review.

I guess now is when the knives come out, huh? :trsuit:
