I picked up a misc. drop bag of exotics last time I ordered from Springfield Leather. Figured most will work their way into an inlay on a knife sheath, but I'm finding more excuses to make leather projects. I'm pretty sure this is a lizard belly, anyone who knows exotics better than me please correct.

Thanks everyone. I spent too much time on this site trying to improve my knife sheaths that I was exposed to the leatherworking bug I guess. Some really amazing people and talents here that show you can make anything you see in the stores, only better and to your liking.

I have a question on lizard skins. Anyone know why SLC sells them for $12 and Roje wants $30+ for theirs? Seemed like other exotics were pretty similar priced.

That looks great! I have some of the same lizard, and I had no idea it could look that good. But mine is really thin. Did you use something thicker on the inside, or is that just two pieces of lizard?

The lizard is thin, but fairly rigid. My design in layers goes: lizard-spent giftcard-calfskin-lizard.

Okay, yeah. I thought there must be something else supporting the lizard. Thanks, that helps a lot!

Very nice. That lizard looks so cool. I like the money clip, where did you source it from?

Ebay
