    Default Cleaning blood and hair off of nylon?

    The good news is, my hunting season is over, it lasted about 40 minutes from 7:00am until I took my first (and only) shot and dropped a nice sized doe antelope in Wyoming (Monolith Ranch.)

    Bad news is, both my utility/survival knife and my Wyoming knife got pretty bloody and hair stuck to them dressing said antelope.

    The knives I can clean easily as they are plastic/rubber/steel. But both have nylon sheaths - what have others used to clean them? Particularly the inner sheath on the big knife since I had to put it back into the sheath after using it to break the ribs open.

    Soak it in a solution maybe? And what should the solution be? Just soap or something stronger? As I said, both sheaths are nylon, no leather.

    Thanks in advance!
    Martin

    I just use a toothbrush with dawn after soaking it in hot soapy water.

    Got all the nasties out of my cordura pack the last 3 years

    Hydrogen peroxide takes blood stains out, then oxy-clean for organic material and other stains. Rinse well.

    Hence the reason I posted this in the "hunting" sub-forum and not in the "I need help" sub forum.

    That post will be the cryptic "I need buddies with strong backs and good shovels" post, right?
