MADMAX22 Posted March 27, 2010 Report Posted March 27, 2010 (edited) Hey guys figured this was as good as any for these questions. Looking at different styles of belt loops for sheaths and such Ive started trying to change some things up with my work to have more options when I build stuff. So far Ive always used a strip of leather folded over and stitched at both ends like in the A.S. books. It works very well and seems to hold up to heavy use so far. I have also scene where the leather has to slits cut in it and then is lined or not, the belt slids thru these slits so its essentially the same piece of leather as the sheath. I recently started playing with this type as it seems to speed up the process a little bit even if I do end up lining the back part of the sheath. Now two things, which do you guys prefer for durability and strength? Also on the slit cut style I usually see one end cut shorter then the other, is this to facilitate putting the belt thru or is this so the sheath can be adjusted on the belt to slightly different angles? Thanks for your opinions and experience. Edited March 27, 2010 by MADMAX22 Quote
