Shrade Sharpfinger Sheath

[WalterF]

Finished a Schrade Sharpfinger sheath. Changed the design a little from the first, pretty happy with the edge work and burnish. The handles look bad cause a custom set is going on them and in the process of removing the old.

Nice work on the sheath, and I can understand replacing the scales on the knife if they had gotten beaten up over the years.

I have had the same knife for more than 40 years.  I received it as a gift while stationed in Hawaii, after helping a friend out for several weeks...  Nice little knife and was a workhorse for me for years.  I keep it now because it was a gift.  Good knives.  I ought to make a new sheath for mine as well, just to kill time.

Nice work. It looks great. Make sure to show it after custom scales are added.

Nice job!  I have a list of items I want to make for myself.  Just keep getting buried in honey-do's, mowing, and other client's projects.  I would like to make myself another rifle sling, a shotgun sling, and a Bible cover.  Maybe one of these days.

Awesome work with what you have to work with. Man, get some files, nails, and bolts, and make some stamps. Elk horn looks great on those, if you can find some.

looks nice.  Show a picture of the final product after you replace the scales.

Nice job! Looks great! I have a knife with a cheap sheath on it right now that I hope to make a new one this week for it.

Thank you, I customize knives and new scales on this one to make it mine. They are pretty good knives, glad to see they are making the Generations series back in the USA, want one soon.

Thank you, thinking of European Bog wood. Put a set on a couple Bucks that look nice. Will add tp the post when done.

Thank you, work gets in the way of fun at times. On the farm never know what today brings, love it getting to be around God's creation all day.

Thank you, had the itch to do some, would love to make some stamps just finding the time. Hopefully soon will bring down my tools. Elk is beautiful have it on a custom Buck. Thinking about Bogwood,  or deer antler have some of both save a little money.
