NoahL Report post Posted December 31, 2009 Hello everyone, This is a sheath for a Mora #1 knife for a swap event on another forum. It is made of 7-9oz horsehide leather that has been heavily distressed in my "Apocalyptic Survivor" style (it's not for everyone, I know ), stitched with pure hemp thread, and finished with Leather Balm and Sno-Seal. The belt loop is a fold-over style that I modified with a slot at the fold and leaving the bottom of the loop open so that you can wear the sheath horizontally as well as standard carry, and that slot at the top also makes it very easy to tie cord to it for neck carry. I'll try and get better pictures when the new camera arrives Thanks for looking! ~Noah Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NoahL Report post Posted January 2, 2010 Thanks Tom! I wondered if you would notice this, since it's a Swedish knife--I have to say, you Swedish folk seem to have making quality tools down to a science ~Noah Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
