Members zhh660626 Posted May 22, 2009 Author Members Report Posted May 22, 2009 Very busy these days, you do not respond in a timely manner. 10 days time there will be surplus. Quote
Members zhh660626 Posted June 2, 2009 Author Members Report Posted June 2, 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! There is a wooden sheath, the outside sheath Cowhide Carving in the joints. Those are very beautiful Zhh!!! Very glad to see those because they are very rare on the board!! Tom Quote
Members zhh660626 Posted June 2, 2009 Author Members Report Posted June 2, 2009 Beautiful work but I'd like to see the processes you go through to make one of these. What is underneath the leather?Ray Quote
Members budd4766 Posted June 2, 2009 Members Report 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. Quote

Members phlegmaticdog Posted June 3, 2009 Members Report Posted June 3, 2009 Beautiful work and very unique. Any chance you could show a photo of the carved leather before you wrap it around the template on a future project? Thanks, Dave Quote
