The second one is for a Gary Root Bowie.It is tooled and dyed in a snakeskin pattern.it is set up for a boot knife hence no beltloop or retention strap.I just mounted a stud to hook on the top of the boot.

You never fail to impress, Dave. Good clean work.

Dumb question Dave. How does the stud "hook on the top of the boot"? Not just your design, but boot knife sheaths in general. Just one of those things I've never actually seen or used and you got me curious.

Thanks,

Dan

Thanks RDB, Dan, this type is used for when the guys wear their pants inside the boots and slip the sheath down the side.The stud just hhoks on the top and keeps the sheath from slipping down farther and messing with your ankle.At least that was what I was told, lol.Having not worn one like that myself, I took my customers specs and did it.It will also work on a belt if slipped under the belt.Dave

They look fantastic, I like that lacing around the edge, gotta try that sometime.

That first knife is really nice looking. Looks like it deserves one of your sheaths.

Beautiful sheaths and knives, Dave, as always!

Beautiful work...I love the Eastern Diamondback. Did you harvest yourself or do you have a supplier for that?

Thanks, Carl

Thanks everyone.Carl I didn't harvest this last batch, it came from a friend on the other side of the state.I did however get the smelly job of prepping them for use.I have harvested my own before though, I just leave it to the younger guys now.My nephew is a hog trapper and he usually keeps me in snakes and other critters.Have a freezer full now to clean and prep.Dave :cheers:
