Grunt Report post Posted October 25, 2007 (edited) Howdy All, I am new to this whole leather working thing and this forum. I am a soldier stationed at Fort Bliss, TX. I came across this forum while searching for tutorials. This forum looks like a wealth of info. I started a couple of months ago because I saw a tutorial on how to make a knife sheath and thought "how hard can it be?". Not as easy as I thought it turns out but I am having fun. I have made a few sheaths now and I am in the midst of my first holster project. I am making mostly knife sheaths and holsters. I am would also like to make western belts and other accessories as well. I hope to learn a lot here and hopefully contribute once I know more. Should be fun, there looks like there are a lot of folks here with talent. Here are pics of a couple of my sheaths. A pancake sheath A MOLLE compatible sheath for my web gear And one other Best Regards, Nick كافر- INFIdel "You may all go to Hell and I will go to Texas" Davy Crockett "Because they don't make a Colt .46!"-Texas Ranger Joaquin Jackson When asked why he carried Colt's .45 Government Model.
