Slick Sheath
Seagrove59 replied to Woodshed's topic in Gun Holsters, Rifle Slings and Knife Sheathes
I like your design, I have made two cases for a buddy of mine, I like how you wet moulded yours I was looking to do that on the last one I owe him as it is 2” wide Blade and the thickness of the taper of the blade. I found the making of the side rand was so thick, due to the taper of the blade, it was tough getting stitching holes through. Quick questions, Did you put extra leather in the end to compensate for the sharpness of the blade? What weight leather are you considering? -
Minimalist Wallet
Seagrove59 posted a topic in Purses, Wallets, Belts and Miscellaneous Pocket Items
Wanted to thin out my old wallet, so it is flatter in my pocket or travel bag, ring will allow it to be hooked to my key lanyard in my travel bag or could be like biker wallet with a chain. Combined two designs, I had done for my daughter and her partner to make what I figured I was looking for. Found a scrap Kodak leather piece and dyed the card holders in what I felt was a good contrasting colour. Each pocket holds 2 cards, slot with fastener can hold an overflow if needed and back will hold folded bills if I ever have any. Slots lined with pigskin. -
Very nice, thinking of doing one myself. For the leg split do you find it sits ok or are you constantly readjusting? Also did you consider straps for the leg sections?
-
Very nice, great idea carrying leather down to the foot rest, really makes it pleasing to the eye. Quick question did you make the frame or repurpose an old one?
-
Here it is, runs entire length of middle section and 1” in the end pieces, sewn and glued. I get what you did there!
-
It is climbing accessory cord like a braided polyester line, 1/4 between sections.

Too true, hope to put many miles on it.

My wife and I are retiring and we love to travel and play cribbage, so rather than buy a plastic travel board, i did some research, found a WW2 board used by soldiers and modified it. Not 100% happy with the wet moulding for card holder but have only done it once before so will continue to work on that. I do like how it came out overall. I picked a leather with the scars, bite marks, etc, As I liked the travelled look it gave it. Used strap as a carrying holder for the pegs.

Point taken, I had seen it on other designs, will look to modify in my next ones.

Knives and Sheaths
Seagrove59 replied to AlexOstacchini's topic in Gun Holsters, Rifle Slings and Knife Sheathes
Great work on both knives and cases. Knives are particularly beautiful, flow of the bolster from knife up and around the handle quite unique. -
Last model, my youngest daughter’s and her partner’s dog.

I-pad case
Seagrove59 replied to Silverd's topic in Purses, Wallets, Belts and Miscellaneous Pocket Items
Nice choice of hide and leather colour works well together. -
Impressive, you will need to post how you are mounting it or what on, 250 lbs is a hefty load.

My oldest daughters dog as model.
-
Yeh, I got the idea off a thread on this site, came up in my google search, struck me as a good idea.
-
Made collars for my daughters dogs for Christmas. 2” wide / all brass fittings. Nylon strap between layers to eliminate stretching. Glued and hand stitched. Pig skin lined., 2mm padding.

Two New Estwing Hatchet Sheaths
Seagrove59 replied to Vikefan's topic in Gun Holsters, Rifle Slings and Knife Sheathes
Nice work, very neat stitching, and like how the design fits well with the age of the axe, only thing I might suggest for future ones is depending on usage is a little wider edge and add snap rivets. -

KNIFE SHEATH Christmas present
Seagrove59 replied to corkscrew's topic in Gun Holsters, Rifle Slings and Knife Sheathes
Really like the pebbling under the initials, really draws the eye. Which stamp did you use for that effect? -
