Members Hags Posted August 31, 2023 Members Report Posted August 31, 2023 It's been a busy 2 weeks. I've done a shoulder holster, a pancake for a Kimber, and a chest rig for a 7.5 in 44 mag ruger that I didn't post because it was a repeat of one I did for a 480 ruger, same bear on it and everything. But, when the guy came to pick up the 44 chest rig, he asked if I could to a sheath for an old knife. This is an old (we're guessing WW2) knife. Bakelite handle, U.S.N. on one side, and Colonial Mk1 on the other. It's in really good shape, and very sharp. It also has a very nice patina, no rust, must be stainless. I'm thinking aircrew? Anyway, did a sheathwith USN on the front. Seems appropriate to the age. Quote Not so retired RN. Living on the Washington Peninsula.

Members dikman Posted August 31, 2023 Members Report Posted August 31, 2023 Probably pretty close to how the original sheath would have looked. Quote Machines wot I have - Singer 51W59; Singer 331K4; Seiko STH-8BLD; Pfaff 335; CB4500. Chinese shoe patcher; Singer 201K (old hand crank)
