Suede Lined Folding Pocket Knife Sheath

[Leprechaunleather]

So today i finished my knife sheath , along the lines of making it i left out some burnishing , which made it really difficult to do when the case was put together. the edges are a bit rough because i have no skyver to take down the thickness of suade before stitching it so i had to try and do it with a blade which didn't work so well .

well here it is .......

Good job, looks like it will last a life-time.

Next time, burnish the belt loop before you stitch it in place....also, if you glue the suede liner in place, and you should. you don't have to run it to the edges in the pouch area. That way you only have the two layers of veg tan to burnish. The glue will keep the suede in place. You have no forces pulling it apart from the veg tan, so it's not going anywhere.
