If you do some googling on the topic of making a kydex knife sheath, you'll probably learn a lot. The tools and materials do not have to be expensive, and you can learn as you go.
All my best,

That's really cool.
Something like that would would free up a lot of space in my cargo pockets.

Thanks!
I kinda' hate pocket carry, mainly 'cause my pocketses are already full! I've tried rear pocket carry, and it works very well with a P-32 and an Uncle Mikes #1 pocket holster, but it's inaccessible when driving. I hate unholstering a gun and placing in the center console, so this carry puts the backup pistol where I at least have a chance of reaching it. I'll have to fight the shoulder strap, but I'm working on the draw, and it's still better than pocket carry!
This setup also lets me carry the extra light I know I should tote along, as well as a backup pistol and extra knife. Still waiting for my renewal CHL to arrive, but this rig should get a lot of carry time as soon as that happens!
Right now, in summer, it will be deep concealed, under a buttoned (and usually tucked in) shirt. My primary is in tucked appendix position and is quicker to get to than the P-32 when on my feet. I plan to leave one shirt button open or to start replacing a button or two on every shirt with snaps.
All my best,
