Really nice work! My dad used to be in the CAS several years back. There were plenty of folks there that crafted a lot of their own sheathes and holsters, but none of them hold a candle to this craftsmanship right here. How long did it take you to put all that together from the get go?

If you can think it, you can craft it...

Very sharp design, pun intended.

Those are nice stirrups, I was thinking of doing things like that but figured I'd start a bit smaller. :)

It took about 10 hours to finnish, 8 of that was just lacing though. Thats after making the patten too, which takes me forever for some reason.
