2 Knives, Same Pattern Done 2 Ways W/ Sheaths

[Brad Johnson]

Greetings all,

Those pictured here come from one of my more popular patterns. Both have Wickett&Craig 7/8oz tooling leather and both have been treated to Barry King stamping. Enjoy

Love the color. I can't get that color no matter what I try.

Very good looking sheaths, nice and smooth. I just noticed why ... no contrasting colors on the edges. I really like them this way!

Excellent work! Might I ask what basket stamp that is? I love the longer look.

Im not sure but it looks like the leather was just oiled and then had a clear finish applied.

Yep you are right, I oil with a good quality neetsfoot oil and set in the sun to acheive an even color (reapply if necessary) and give everything a double coat of Febings Harness Dressing. The basket stamp is a medium Barry King but it looks longer because it is stamped at an angle of approx/30 degrees. Hope this helps
