Thank you Thank you Thank you, there are quite a few different ones out there. I love the braid work, on my list to learn someday.

Did that yesterday. Made a pocket sleeve for a Buck 301 size knife, a Case 6375 will fit with 1/8 inch exposed. A clip was added to keep the knife in a vertical positio in your front pocket.

Sounds nice, question is the pin straight through? Ground in on one side and it didn't seem to have a head. Thank you

Seeing those lightbulbs go off drives me, loved it in my career, not a front office type (hated it). Sharing knowledge helps all of us.

Good idea, learning about slips. The small clips are hard to find, but it will be another option. Thank you Finished a horizontal belt sheath for a Large Case Stockman, messed up when tracing pattern had it upsiide down which makes this one mine to try.

Worked on a pocket sleave for a Buck 301, playing with sheaths for now. Have some mammoth tusk coming for a Buck 112 that I carry. Added knife work to fill in time until could do some leather. Thought it would be easier to add to this thread.

Thank you, it was made out of scraps that had defects, the inside has clamp marks from processing. I will use scrap to make my projects and test. Thank you Thank you, enjoy trying new things to keeps things interesting. Changed knife to and Old Timer 340OTG, Space Pen, and possible O-Light. It would have to be light or pen due to the stretch. This setup fits better, always have a Buck 112 on my belt so the pocket knife is for little things.

It has been crazy on the farm, haven't spent much time on the computer. Had some fun tonight making an EDC sleeve for my Buck 301, Kaweco Fountain Pen, and a spot for cash and cards. It was fun having to split leather with a skiving knife, it isn't even totally but it works. Going to be fun seeing it age.

Thank you for the kind words. I enjoy teaching at Tandy, they are all skill levels. I am learning also. Appreciate it, ths has been an adventure for me also. Can't wait to bring my setup down. Nice

Made 3 different knife sheath styles for a class I have the opportunity to teach in Birmingham, AL on 19 July. Love being able to show a way of designing and making these with minimal tools and expense. Used clearance bellies, contact cement, wax, glycerin soap, thread, and neets foot oil.

Good job, like the style better than steam punk.

Nice job, very clean.

Thank you, I customize knives and new scales on this one to make it mine. They are pretty good knives, glad to see they are making the Generations series back in the USA, want one soon. Thank you, thinking of European Bog wood. Put a set on a couple Bucks that look nice. Will add tp the post when done. Thank you, they are fun to make. Thank you, work gets in the way of fun at times. On the farm never know what today brings, love it getting to be around God's creation all day. Thank you, had the itch to do some, would love to make some stamps just finding the time. Hopefully soon will bring down my tools. Elk is beautiful have it on a custom Buck. Thinking about Bogwood, or deer antler have some of both save a little money. Thank you, will do.

Finished a Schrade Sharpfinger sheath. Changed the design a little from the first, pretty happy with the edge work and burnish. The handles look bad cause a custom set is going on them and in the process of removing the old.
