Been messing around making some Buck 110 folding knife pancake sheaths.   The angled one I carved a feather and the straight one just some stamping.  I played a a bit with color on the stamped one.   Kind antique but not quite.   Anyway open to thoughts as always.

 

Thanks

Those look fantastic!  Love the color.  Stitching looks on point.  When I back stitch at the end of a run, I will pull the first stitching really tight so the back stitch over the top will lay down a bit more and not be as obvious.  Make sure to burnish those belt slots too.

Thanks Bob.  On the back stitch I always try to do that.  I stitched these on a needle awl campbell randall sewing machine and I struggle with back stitching with it.  If you go through the same hole you can cut the stitch with the awl.  So I try to go close or just next to it.   I'm really not sure the best practice there.  I also have left the tails and then hand back stitched which results in a better result but adds time .  Good point ok burnishing the slots as I did not do that, thinking I can do that with a dowl rod maybe or the pointed end of an antler.  I use a deer antler on my bench  to burnish at times.  Good thoughts and thanks for that!
