@Handstitched Very nice ! Sounds like you will eat good whatever the price of meat .

@Klara When I was a young boy my Grandfather had a corn crib door with leather hinges , worked well best I remember . @toxo Yes , I have seen that video and may have to try that .He does awesome stuff !!!!

@JayEhl Thanks for the Weaver pattern pack tip , I may have to check that out . I bet she did

They are not used as much here now, I just live in an older house . I have watched him but not lately , don't tell me Mr. Gonzales is making switch covers

to work on , I just needed something to keep my hands busy a little while . You know I am finding less and less stuff that CAN"T be made from leather

Clever !!!!!! and nicely done

I am of the opinion that any leather you might use will absorb things , but I may be wrong . After seeing your knife I would look for a local knife maker and see about maybe trading out some work ( ie he shapes and scales your knife and you do some leather work in return ) being located in Georgia there should be one near by

WELCOME !!!!

Nice work !!!!

Another non-slip option is split or suede or roughout veg tan .

OUTSTANDING !!!!! That looks awesome .

I won't be much help , as a carpenter for most of my life I can only tell you add no more weight than you have to . For me the best thing they ever did was add the clip on the side of drills , no more need for a holster. Electricians may have other needs ? Good luck

Nicely done !!!

Looks good and should be easy on the joints

For 2 tone I would brush the lighter color on all of it and then using something like this hit the high spots with the black . Be sure to dab the black off onto paper towel before going to the hide , you can control the amount better. This is just a small piece of hardwood wrapped inside . If you want the ( secondary knobs ) lighter like I understood you to begin with , I would use a very small brush and resist them before applying anything , them same as above . This is how I would go about it but I haven't ever done one

I had look that up to .

Just a thought but canvas coated with clear epoxy might work ? The epoxy might be too far from natural for your needs .

That is very nice !!!!! She should be well pleased , good luck to the both of you at the market !!!
