KurseD Report post Posted December 11, 2014 I'm in the process of refurbishing my grandfather's old knife. The original sheath is beyond hope, so I want to make a replica. It has pins that push through with fold over tabs or ears on the backside. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TwinOaks Report post Posted December 11, 2014 Those look like some sort of furniture tack. Or maybe just 'spots'. If you're looking to exactly reproduce the sheath, then sure, go ahead and use them, but they aren't what *should* be used there. There are better choices if you want to reinforce the sheath.

KurseD Report post Posted December 12, 2014 I know it won't be 100% exact, but if I can find them that will be one step closer. Thanks for the tips, off to the great Google I go a hunting. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tree Reaper Report post Posted December 13, 2014 That looks like a split rivet but instead of spreading them, the ends are pulled towards each other and crossed over. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
