Vikefan Report post Posted October 18, 2009 Just bought a stingray skin; looks cool and very durable. My question is; what is the most effective method for inlaying this into a project (knife sheath/holster)? Mainly hand-stitching leather projects at this time, drilling or punching holes in my leather. Please advise. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This is what I've done so far, it is the front portion of a boot knife sheath, decided not to use the white part of the skin as I did feel it went with the design (curvature) of the sheath itself.
