My Best Sheath Yet

[stu925]

I bought this Buck 119 off ebay for under $25 but the sheath looked like it had been run over by a truck. I kicked it around for a couple of days and decided I liked the idea of a bushcraft style sheath for this one. I wanted a one piece design but didn't want the flesh side of the leather showing so I skived down a piece of leather to cover the belt loop and laminated it on. After some time stitching and burnishing this what I came up with. I couldn't be happier with it. You guys tell me what you think.

That works for me and I really like the idea of covering the flesh side. It looks great,

Fine looking craftsmanship !

I had a 118 that I just completed and gave to the customer, more wild

than yours, but its on a bushcraft, frontier theme. ------- Wild Bill46

In think it's a very nice sheath. Nice edges.

Thanks everyone for the comments. Actually snubbyfan, I owe you a thank you for your advice on the edges. I followed your edge burnishing method and those are my results. I actually added an extra step and hit it with some resolene after it was all done, I'm hoping it protects the edge a bit.
