Thank for the welcomes! Bill, When making "pouch" sheathes, What is the norm for weight? 8-9 oz? I have read the the "Stacked" or "sandwich"( I dont know the proper term) type are heavier like 10-11 oz.

Hi Folks, I just wanted to Introduce myself. In my somewhat sparse spare time I mainly Like to Make Damascus Steel for Knifemaking, But I do make an occasional knife too,So I wanted to start making sheaths to go with them. (Havent Made one yet) I have become side tracked w/ leather carving. I just found the Local Tandy store and bought some tools and decided to have a go at it. This is my second Piece. I'm trying to get the hang of the swivel knife, But my main problems are the Beveler and altough not used in this the Backgrounder. (I cant keep them moving steadily)Tell me what you think Please. Also Does anyone know of any Good Sheath making tutorials? I'm Looking foward to chatting w/ you all here and hpoefully learn something. Shawn

Very Neat Little guys. I'm partial to the Fisher, Partly cause I'm From Jersey and I also Have one.
