Plastic covers for 2-blade broad heads

[Wyohab]

I’ve been looking all over for a simple, plastic broadhead cover for 2-blade broadheads.  So I can stuff arrows into a back quiver without unintended consequences.  I can’t find these being sold by any of the vendors I usually use.  Any suggestions for where I might find these?

You could get a kydex kit and make some cases with the provided rivets and grommets.  I have not seen any made of plastic before.  I made a few for myself out of leather.

I make the stalker sheaths to attach to the bow but they could also work as protection in a quiver.

kydex is thicker than the old clear plastic devices we put on Bear with bleeder.  The kydex is pretty easy to work with as I have both knife and hand gun success with it.  It is sturdy and rigid.
Would you put a sting on them and thread them thru the bottom of your back quiver? a knot stop to easily pull the device off? I can see your need but have to think how easy it would be to re-sheaf them after you pulled them out, and how easy would it be to take them off in a hunting situation.

Or if your cheap, you can use old vinyl siding in place of kydex.

Or just put a peice of rubber backed carpet cut to shape in the bottom of your quiver?

these were kinda cheap at least..

All you need is one arrow anyway right?

I have a bunch of covers that were made for Bear Razorheads. They have slots for the inserts, but work just fine on double sided heads. Are these still being made? They were cheap and lasted a long time. I have had mine since the 70's.

Thanks for all the input.  For those that suggested something soft in the the bottom of the back quiver to stick the heads into - I wasn't completely clear in my original post about one of my objectives:  some protection for myself and others while fumbling around with loose arrows in the dark.

The Kydex ideas would certainly work, but are more involved than I want to get, and will likely be a little loud banging around in a quiver.  Since it doesn't look like the simple plastic slip-ons I remember are readily available, I'll probably just have the local saddle shop sew-up some simple sleeves.

My preference is leather over plastic. This is a pic from when a friend made these a couple of years ago.  I can band several together and drop them into my BQ, that way with a quick, short tug I can pull one arrow out of it's sheath and leave the rest in the quiver.  The leather thong also allows me to tie one arrow to my upper limb when still hunting.

For practicality purposes this makes me think about doing some covers using heavy cordura and Kevlar or dyneema thread. Easy project.

If you've never hear or "worbla" go look it up.  It's heat mouldable plastic and you can make anything at all out of it

I have some of those Bear head covers as well. I can't remember where I got them, but I haven't seen them anywhere for many years.

Three Rivers as the leather BH. Sheaths that tie together like Green posted. They are a little spendy though.

I bought my leather 2 blade sheaths from a big auction site. You could probably figure out which one.

[Captain Kirk]

You can do lots of things with some scrap plastic and a heat gun but I prefer leather. Once I used some scrap leather from some old work boots, (no, it didnt smell like feet)cut to the shape of a broadhead and just glued the seams with Duco glue. Nothing fancy but the head was covered. Then I decided I didnt need them any more and never made
any more. It's not difficult.

I don't use a back quiver, but do need to protect my broadheads when they are in transit or storage. I had some safety yellow coated cordura laying around, so made a pattern and created a dozen broadhead covers. Nothing to it.
