Working Bowie Knife Sheath

[rdb]

A customer referred to me, asked for a sheath for this bowie, given to him from a friend visiting up from Down Under.

The knife reads:

Rowland

Swinden

Sheffield

Start to finish about 3 hrs. Chestnut Bridle Leather. Machine stitched, except for the loop, , Copper Rivets, Zack Whites edge ink (I have to touch the edges up, I reworked things after it was done, and kind of roughed it up in some areas...Note to self...leave things alone when your done), rough molding job.

It's maybe a $45 sheath not a $200 one, but it looks nice to me. The knife locks in good, with the feel of a click. The loop is not riveted to the sheath, it moves. If you pull it up it tightens around the hilt...good for traveling in rough woods, or so my premise goes.

Anywho, thanks for looking.

Seems like so many are trying to re-invent a sheath these days, with fanciness, bling, inlays, lining, etc.....I also favor the plain and simple good using stuff. Good job.
