That's a big knife

Big knife for sure! Nice job on the sheath.

[snubbyfan]

That it is.

Thanks again Rohn.

What dye do you use?

[snubbyfan]

Fiebings USMC black. Let that dry a couple of days. Buff off the excess then give it a thin coat of Neatsfoot oil. Give that a day to sit and soak in, buff it then apply some Tan-Kote and wipe off the excess. After that dries for a little while, give it a good buffing.

I was not at all pleased with the USMC black when I tried it. As I recall I was using twice as much dye using that stuff to get the coverage I get using the Pro oil dye. I go through a lot of black dye compared to everything else I use so I went back to the black Pro Oil dye. Glad you had better luck with it.

That's interesting. My experience was quite the opposite. I use Fiebings professional oil dye for every other color except black.

Seemed like the black didn't have the coverage I desired.

For me the USMC Black works better. I buy it by the quart.
