Members Rocky Posted January 30, 2010 Members Report Posted January 30, 2010 Hi friends of fine leatherwork, would like to show one of my knife sheaths with a simple and usefull idea to carry the knife in very variable positions like vertical, horizontal or diagonal - the very strong snap at bottom of the fixed beltloop permits depositing without opening the belt and the addited loop makes it to a crossdraw sheath. best regards from Germany, Fritz Quote if you stop trying to get better you have stopped being good .

Members NoahL Posted February 1, 2010 Members Report Posted February 1, 2010 Elegant, smooth, and I like the two-tone dye job you have on there. How is the retention with it only being stitched to where the handle starts? ~Noah Quote Website: Wasteland Leatherwork Collaboration Projects: The Wasteland Crow Project
Members Rocky Posted February 2, 2010 Author Members Report Posted February 2, 2010 @ King`s X thanks for your nice commendation - I always try to give my best ! @ NoahL Thanks to you too ! That two-tone dying is well received by many of my customers. The retention especially with that knife and his rubbercoated handle is very strong - think it wouldn`t be possible to pull the knife out off a tubular sheath made in conventional style - so I decided in that way and it works really good ! kindest regards from Germany, Fritz Quote if you stop trying to get better you have stopped being good .
