Snap button and rivets for thicker leather

[Swedbeans]

Hi im making my first axe sheath and cant find the right rivets and such. Im using 0.5cm leather and it is stacked three times at the thickest(with the welt, if that is the right name for the spacer in front of the edge), the button would just be through one layer of leather. Any help is appreciated thanks

That’s thick stuff, but a Line 20 snap with either a long post or using a French edger to inset the snap pieces should work fine. Rivets come in varying post lengths. Just look at the hardware specs, and it shouldn’t be too hard to find something that fits.

I think I'd use copper rivets on something like that. The snap could be set through a single layer before cementing the stack.
