mkleathers Report post Posted April 25, 2011 First of all Id like to say hi to everyone. I had my first steps in leathercraft around December, last year. I did first sheaths for myself, then people started to ask if I could make something for them. And so it went. Leatherworking is my hobby I work in my free time and enjoy it a lot! I mostly make knife sheats and pouches but Im open to other projects as well. Here are examples of my work so far. Cheers. Mat. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mkleathers Report post Posted May 18, 2011 Simple sheath for a small knive. The knife would be carried in the backpack rather than on the belt, therefore lack of the loop. You can still attach it with a piece of leather/nylon strap. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Your stuff is great. Vikefan Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
