SBranson Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 To read the blog post shows what separates your work from many others. Not only in form but in thoughtful presentation. As what Luke said, your work is always a story and a damn fine one at that. - Stuart www.sbransonknives.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Powning Posted April 29, 2013 Author Share Posted April 29, 2013 Thanks so much everyone. Hi Ryan, I formed the leather while wet using a bone tool on the inside of the sheath. I formed it by stretching the leather where the sheath needed to curve down following the blade shape. I had the seax wrapped in saran wrap and then electric tape to keep it dry. Once the sheath was shaped I clamped it over the seax using wooden forms cut out to mirror the edge of the blade, then I tooled it while it was still wet.
