Joshua States Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 Howdy y'all. I finally got around to finishing the sheath for this knife . (It's amazing what a rapidly approaching show will do for your incentive). It still needs some wax cleanup and polishing, but the construction and dying is all done. It is fully lined with kip. I've been experimenting with sheath making and decided to try making a sheath that could be worn either hanging straight down from the belt loop or high on the hip in a cross draw fashion. Here is the back to show how the belt loop is made. And the two ways of wearing it. 4 “So I'm lightin' out for the territory, ahead of the scared and the weak and the mean spirited, because Aunt Sally is fixin’ to adopt me and civilize me, and I can't stand it. I've been there before.” The only bad experience is the one from which you learn nothing.

Doug Lester Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 I would say that you did a real nice job there. The snake skin inlay makes it stand out. Doug HELP...I'm a twenty year old trapped in the body of an old man!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garry Keown Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 That is a great design for the two carry options Joshua and of course the execution is very pleasing.
