Here is my latest knife sheath. I think it will work well for the guy as this is how he wanted it. I would love to hear any opinions on what might work better. I was able to use up some scrap HO on this one.

Mark,

That's pretty nice.

The only thing you might consider on the next one is making the brand darker so it stands out more. From a short distance most people won't even know it's there. Just a thought.

I like the way it sits on the belt.

I did do that after I took the pictures and it sure made it pop. I had just oiled it in those pictures so oil dyed the brand.

Here is the final product.

Mark,

Nice design..... the customer should like it. I like the design A LOT.

I have one comment about the offset of the pattern. It is a little nit-picky but the knife offset to the pancake isn't the same all the way around the knife. It is slight but it shows up.

Regards,

Ben

Thanks Ben I did see that after I was done. I had tried to keep it but lsoe it some how. I was useing some scraps and it was a little softer , and did have a little trouble with cutting it out. I needed to find some firmer leather for it.

Mark,

You probably already thought of this but you might rough size the pancake; attach the knife portion and then final cut the pancake portion using dividers or something for the line. Since you stated it was soft that may be how you did it anyhow. The best laid plans sometime go astray. Still looks nice and yes the darkened brand does add to the punch.

Regards,

Ben
