DCKNIVES Report post Posted June 23, 2011 Your sheaths look to be very well done.Clean stitching, nice edges, proper knife depth for the pouch sheaths, and even dyeing on the inside, all things I usually look for.Your center seam sheaths are really nicely done.You don't see many of those in the states, and they can be tough to get right.I have done only one center seam myself, and it was a Plains Indian version done with rawhide.Dave Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mattsh Report post Posted June 24, 2011 Welcome Ivan to the forums. We are glad that you are here. It is always good to see the work of fellow leather workers from around the world. Thank you for sharing your pictures with us. Those knife sheathes look really good. As Dave already pointed out the center seam sheath is really neat. I like it ! I really like the black handle dagger in the second set of pictures and I am a big fan of the damascus blade you have in the center seam sheath. It is very nice! Did you make the damascus? I enjoy bladesmithing as well but I have too many hobbies and I do not get enough time to perfect my bladesmithing. Again, welcome to the forums and we hope to see more of your work.
