DesertCntrLeather Report post Posted February 16, 2016 Hello all, I am new to this community, I was given my grandfather's tools for working leather a few years ago. I played and practiced with all the tools. I was asked if I could make a pair of knife sheaths for my mechanic and his father in-law. I said sure. He had no patterns in mind so I went with what he hunted. Deer and Duck. His father in-law did not hunt duck so I stuck with a buck. The buck did not come out the way I wanted it to.. all but the Letters and leaves are traced and free hand done. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Halitech Report post Posted February 17, 2016 For being new, you did a really good job on the freehand work. I'm going ot take a guess that you used a kit from Tandy to make both knife sheaths. I haven't looked close at the kits but do they include a welt so you don't end up cutting the thread when you are taking the knife out and putting it in?
