Members EBlackmore Posted March 1, 2014 Members Report Posted March 1, 2014 Heres a sheath I made for a Crocodile Dundee knife. Its veg tanned leather and crocodile with kangaroo lace around the border. Handle braids and sharpening spike lanyard are kangaroo. Quote
Members GamberLeathercrafter Posted March 2, 2014 Members Report Posted March 2, 2014 That looks exceptional, I like gator but they ask to much for it. Very nice job. Quote
Members benlilly1 Posted March 2, 2014 Members Report Posted March 2, 2014 Cool Sheath! Really like the handle braiding on the knife. Quote
Members ReneeCanady Posted March 2, 2014 Members Report Posted March 2, 2014 Nice looking set! That looks exceptional, I like gator but they ask to much for it. Very nice job. They have some croc embossed veg tan at Tandy right now on sale for $29.00. Of course it's not the real thing, but it has a really neat texture. Quote
Members Colt W Knight Posted March 2, 2014 Members Report Posted March 2, 2014 That is as nice as I have ever seen. Well done. Quote
Members Peter T Posted March 3, 2014 Members Report Posted March 3, 2014 Excellent sheath for that knife. Great work. Pete Quote
Members EBlackmore Posted March 3, 2014 Author Members Report Posted March 3, 2014 Thanks everybody. The knife and sheath took a lot of research and hard work and Im pretty happy with how it turned out. Quote
Members Colt W Knight Posted March 3, 2014 Members Report Posted March 3, 2014 (edited) I was impressed when I saw you included the steel as well. Love that scene where he has that guy hanging up side down, and he is sharpening his knife. Then he slowly starts cutting the individual strands of rope. I use to make knives when I was a teenager, and I remember how much work it was to make a nice knife, and I never even got close to your level. Edited March 3, 2014 by Colt W Knight Quote
Contributing Member Samalan Posted March 3, 2014 Contributing Member Report Posted March 3, 2014 WoW! Did you make the knife 2 that's some very nice work what steel did you use on the knife . I made a similar one in length it's around 18'' overall with a leather handle and still need to make sheath for it and seeing yours really has got me thinking . Thanks so much for showing it. Quote
Members EBlackmore Posted March 11, 2014 Author Members Report Posted March 11, 2014 Yes, I did make the knife as well. The blade is forged from 1075. Quote
