    He said he almost cried. Thanks Mutt, I'm gonna put it on my phone right now.

    Painter! Another really nice piece of work!
  3. battlemunky
    Yeah man, another beautiful example. Hint: you are a painter.
  4. battlemunky
    I think that looks pretty great for not being a painter.

    I'm an ESEE fan myself. I have an Izula, Laser Strike, have had a 4 and a 5 as well. Hoping to get a Junglas one of these days. Throw some TKC scales on it and you have a winner. Great knives. You can shave with everyone of the ones I've had.

    With all the awesome stitching running around this forum and seeing @bikermutt07 signature line I have seriously been considering stitching as I do inane crap on the couch. I have miles of thread and a ton of leather. Sometimes just doing projects isn't enough. I've seen improvement in my stitching just from doing projects but I think I am going to start doing it just for the sake of doing it. Time to make the gravy. Your improvement over time is great @KingsCountyLeather. You should be proud of your progression.

    That is a really nice sheath. I like the dark starburst dye job a lot and your mini-altoids tinder kit pouch is perfect. Looks great. Is it able to be carried any way other than scout?

    Man, that is an awesome piece of work! That stitching and lacework is insane.

    Quite awesome @motocouture!

    Thanks @Sanch. The saddle pulled out easily enough but it's fighting going back in and I can't keep the split ring compressed because the opening of the barrel is bigger than the split ring and is recessed.

    Ok, so, I'm trying to play this game and have the saddle piece removed and wrapped. Mine has a split ring on the shaft that I can't get it back into the large barrel. Anyone know how to get it back in? I can get pics up if needed. I'm working on the stacked piece now so I have a little time to figure out how to reassemble but I can't find it anywhere. This also led me to search on swivel knife maintenance which there isn't a whole lot of aside from sharpening either. Does anyone regularly take their swivel knives apart and lube 'em, etc.?

    Here is my base so I'm a pocket down from you and one flap less so in this configuration it ends up being about 18-24 oz. My son carries his daily and loves it. The thickest I've made would've been around 30 oz with the 8-9 oz exterior and I haven't heard how it carries yet. I think it comes out to a little over .25" thick and .333" ish file:///home/chronos/u-e1c0e014965f36745c27cd159df297c952f469c3/Downloads/4-Slot%20Bifold%20Directions.pdf

    Looks really good from here. I don't see any flaws jumping out at me.
  15. battlemunky
    Looks great though. I use 3-4 oz on my wallets occasionally using 8 oz for the exterior if I'm wanting to overbuild it.

    I's recommend doing a search on here for Gray Halliday and looking at his stuff. It runs from wall art to guitar straps. Also, a general search on carving may be good too. With your painting skills and eye for coloring you could do some magic on some carved leather.

    Yeah, the leather part of making the mask can be a bit tricky and it seems like you have that all sorted but your painting skills are off the chart. That is some really nice work. I can make stuff that would be pretty hard to destroy, you can make beautiful stuff that is pretty hard to destroy. You can be taught the mechanics of making stuff from leather but you can't be taught the artsy side of it, that is talent, and you have my envy. I dig those masks for sure.

    Those are beautiful work! I think your stitching is wonderful and the color choices you have picked work well together. I be pleased with any of those. I like that piping on the seams; always wondered how that was done.
  19. battlemunky
    Looks really good!

    That is a thing of beauty @YinTx, it sucks that that much sewing is as crippling as it is. I sewed about 5, maybe 6 linear feet and my hands were knurled up like a crone. I didn't want to sew anything ever again, I could only imagine all that. It looks absolutely awesome though.
  21. battlemunky
    Damn it man. That's all I got.
  22. battlemunky
    Looks outstanding and ridiculously classy. You have done well again!
  23. battlemunky
    Sorry you have to do some rework but even that part I'm appreciating following. This is an even more excellent thread!
  24. battlemunky
    If this is as awesome as your usual fare, I can't wait!
  25. battlemunky
    Those look really nice, I may borrow some of your design and make some for the guys at the office being as we all travel a decent amount.
