Kydex sheath designs - good websites for inspiration?

I just ordered some kydex sheath making supplies from Texas Knifemaker's Supply and I'm trying to get ideas for good sheath designs. I'm a total newbie and my knifemaking experience is limited to a Darrel Ralph folder kit and a half dozen steak knives made with blank blades from TKS.

I've never worked with Kydex before and I'd like to flatten out my learning curve as much as possible. I really don't know what works and what doesn't with respect to belt loops, belt clips, tie down holes, thumb assisted opening (like some of the Dozier sheaths have) and the like.

What makes a good design? Who makes the best kydex sheaths? What are the best websites to visit for inspiration?

Note: this is just for my personal use, no sheaths will be sold.

Many thanks!

-Mark (Brew)
