Members Rogueshadow Posted September 4, 2013 Members Report Posted September 4, 2013 Very cool! I've never worked with rawhide, how is it? Quote
Members Josh Ashman Posted September 5, 2013 Members Report Posted September 5, 2013 looks nice TJ, good job! Quote
Members Sona Posted September 5, 2013 Members Report Posted September 5, 2013 looks simple and clean. I really like it May I ask how exactly you handled tha rawhide? As far as I worked with it (maybe.... one or two times?) it shortend massivly in bth directions and I was unable to fortell the final measurement which made the whole thing really... let´s say I wasn´t happy with it ^^. But actually I like the look of it and so I might give it another try. So do you have any hint how to handle that stuff? Quote
Members TJ Smith Posted September 6, 2013 Author Members Report Posted September 6, 2013 Go to knifedogs.com and then forums . Find sheaths and click the sticky rawhide sheath tutorial. This is the info I used mostly for the sheath. Don,t get it to wet.It does shrink.Use rawhide to stitch with and use it wet. That way it’ll shrink also. I used artificial sinew and it didn’t. Lotta trial and error. this was my first one to Quote
Members Sona Posted September 7, 2013 Members Report Posted September 7, 2013 thanks for the link, I´ll have a look at that Quote
