Schrade Knife Sheath

Must be the fact that deer season is just around the corner but I've been very busy lately. Had a guy ask about making a new sheath for his old hunting knife (an old Schrade). Apparently he had someone make him a sheath a few years ago and it just didn't hold up, the retaining strap loosened up to the point that the knife can be partially drawn without popping the snap and the edge started to de-laminate from the welt. He didn't much care what color I used so I went with Fiebing's dark brown. I'm especially proud of this one and think it's probably my best sheath to date. The edges burnished up nice and with the gluing and stitching it will never come apart.

Here's the old sheath:




Here's the new one:

Nice job. I like the color and shape.
