New "big K-Bar" Sheath

Recommended Posts

A friend made himself a K-Bar, . . . about 4 inches longer than a standard.

He asked me to come up with something for him.

It's not finished yet, . . . but I always like the look of the product just before it goes into the dye tank. . . . and here it is.

It was a fun project.

May God bless,

Dwight

Well, . . . here is the finished product, . . . the dye took a bit darker than it normally does, . . . probably the cow caused that, y'know.

Anyway, . . . it has been a fun project, . . . hope Bob enjoys using it as much as I did making it.

May God bless,

Dwight

Darn good looking sheath (and knife too). What on earth is he going to do with such a big blade? Hunt wild boars?

I guess maybe he'll do the same with the knife that he does with the 28mm cannons he creates, . . . shoots, . . . and enjoys.

Sometimes, . . . there is no justification for any of the "things" we do.

I'm in the process of building an actual shooting version of an M14, . . . that will shoot rim fire .22LR's. Been at it for a couple years, . . . just brought home the barrel tonight after having it turned down to the appropriate profile.

Got a lot of work to do on it, . . . but that is OK, . . . probably be a while before I can afford to buy .22LR's the way it's going now :cowboy:

Thanks for all the encouragement, . . . good words, . . . leather work is one of the few things besides eating a good steak, . . . that I have found to be theraputic in nature for my persona.

May God bless,

Dwight

That is real nice work that you have there I like the way wrapped the tooling piece around as it adds another demension to the sheath and makes it really stand out.
