Excell Report post Posted May 18, 2009 Looks terrific. Two questions - ok, I'm always full of questions, but two for now: What did you use for forms? Is that a cover on the original scabbard, or from "whole cloth" so to speak? Also, what finishes did you use? If it is not a cover for the original scabbard, what did you use for lining and finishing on the inside? I love the work! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

budd4766 Report post Posted June 2, 2009 Very, very nice. I too would like to know how to do this. I have a bone-handled rapier that could use a new sheath/baldric. the Baldric would be easy, but I'm not so sure about the sheath. Great work, though, thanks for sharing.
