That's close. But needing in format I can print. Something newer than that. But thank you so much for your help!

Can anyone help me find a good free pattern for a 6 in wide trucker/ biker wallet pattern like in picture? Please and thank you!

I purchased a #12 rivet setter and the rivet doesn't fit the hole on the bottom. Been trying to find a contact for them. Can't find them!! So, I just made my own out of 303 stainless steel scrap piece. I'd still like to contact them. Anybody have a direct contact?

Where can I find stong metal boot clips for a boot knife sheath? What rivets to use? Thanks again

Today at the flea market for $2.00. C.S. Osborne hole punch in great shape. Yep...happy!!

Look at Trademark registration. It's a little spendy...$250.00-$600.00 US. If you want to protect your logo or company name. This website will have all the info you need. United States Patent and Trademark Office (uspto.gov)

Thanks for the info !!

Looking for info on which kind of snap to use on a daily use knife sheath for retention? What and why of your recommendation. Where to get them from? Thanks again David

The irons teeth are roughly 2.5mm wide. I use 8-9, 9-10 ounce veg tan mostly. The tip of the Wuta awl barely goes thru.

Thanks Frodo...sent him a message

I have a small Wuta diamond awl which I like. Plus an array of others. The Wuta small fits my Kevin Lee stitching irons very well. It's just not long enough going thru 3 layers of veg tan. I'll probably need it to go thru 4 layers at some point. Who makes one that size but longer? Thanks again

Very nice indeed! I'd also like to know what's on the inside for the weight?

That's awesome! I had a few myself serving in the U.S.ARMY for 26 years!! Thanks for the praise. Always trying to be better

Here's a sheath I just completed. Wicket & Craig veg tan, dyed mahogany, saddle stitched with .8mm black tiger thread and used Kevin Lee stitching chisels. It has the recipients meaningful military call sign on it. I also made the knife with O D green micarta scales. What do you think? Second pic

Thank you Josh ! Lots to think about. Thanks for the information.

It was just out loud thinking. What other stuff?

Being an U.S.ARMY vet myself...that's AWESOME !!!

I don't have anything currently. I was just thinking about it. Maybe something like I holster I have. But not necessarily inside the waistband. Or with a fold over sheath with the belt loop cut out with the sheath and a snap at the end where you stitch it (in red circle).

Basically I'd like to use pull the dot snaps with my knife sheath belt loops. Question is how do you install them so they won't scratch the knife while in the sheath? I'm using 8-10 oz veg tan Wicket & Craig leather. Knives are on the small side roughly just over 5 inches overall length. Will in future be making longer knives. Also, where's the best place to purchase them from, what tools are required? Thanks again

Sold pending funds

It's adjustable. Barrel is just under 1/2", blade to saddle is 3" - 4 1/4".

I'm using a 8 prong and 4 prong stitching chisel, 7 spi with .8mm tiger thread. I think that the 4 prong makes a slightly larger hole...not much. I've been waiting on a set of Kevin Lee irons for a year now. I don't use the 2 prong much at all. Should I? What do you mean by reversing needles? If I am, I don't know what it is. I'm not using a groover. I've been using dividers to mark a line. Some say grooving weakens the leather. I pound the stitches flat with a cobblers hammer. I'm pretty new at this, but like the diagonal look instead of the drilled holes.

I've been saddle stitching for a little bit now...not much mind you. When I'm stitching sheaths on the curve I occasionally get this wonky bit a couple times. I use a cast on the front side with every stich. It happens about 1 out 4 sheaths. I don't do anything differently that I know of. You can see in picture the difference in the stich. I'm self taught watching the Utube. Especially the English fella Armitage. Advice please? Thanks again
