Members 556guy Posted February 13, 2012 Members Report Posted February 13, 2012 I used the 2 needle method of stitching and my only problem was every once in a while I would stab the thread while pushing the 2nd needle through the hole. From what I read this happens somewhat often. I ordered some egg eye harness needles with a blunt tip and hopefully that will help some. Thanks again for the advice, I am looking forward to working on my next knife sheath . When you have the second needle halfway thru, pull the first thread back a little. If you've stuck the thread it will show up and it can be corrected easily. Quote

Or even easier - one needle half way in, second needle half way in, then use both threads to push needles a bit futher, then pickup each needle on the other side. no chance to stuck thread.
