Dad's Genuine Norlund Camp Axe Sheath

[Vikefan]

I made my dad an axe sheath the hard way, long distance.  I am in Alaska, and my parents are in Minnesota.  I had him trace the outline of his Camp Axe (Norlund), and my mom emailed it to me.  I then came up with the idea of buying some clay, and making an axe replica from the clay.  Once it hardened it shrunk, so I had to add some to get it to the correct (approximate) dimensions as the original.  Here are a pictures of the Sheath pattern I designed for the clay replica I made, and the last picture is the finished sheath on the actual axe head that I mailed back to him, that  he received two days ago.

Please take a look and feel free to critique.

Thank you.

Looks nice, Simple yet functional, like the lacing.

Love that design for almost any single bit.  I did one just like it for an old Germantown carpenter's axe.  Very creative making the axe head from clay, good thinking.
