Second sheath. It looks a lot like the first sheath, because the first sheath showed up at the Harley riders VFW club. Next request for one was immediate. That's a good thing, right? Second request was for one "just like the first one". Not as much fun for me, it was like I'd been there before. It was a different knife though, so that was nice.

First pic is the first sheath, second pic is today's completion.

So much leather...so little time.

Nice! I know what you mean about repeat projects sometimes. Not as challenging. But for me anyways, I enjoy just making something haha.

And you did great on it too.

I'm not paying 80 bucks for a belt!!! It's a strip of leather. How hard could it be? 4 years and 3 grand later.... I have a belt I can finally live with.

Stitching is like gravy, it's only great if you make it every day.

From Texas but in Bossier City, Louisiana.

Thanks, guys! And, yeah, the wife asked if it was boring...nope! Enjoyed every moment of it. I would have liked a different take on the sheath, though. I did get to use everything I learned on the first one, though! Except for the amount of thread needed. Totally forgot how much I needed for the thickness involved. Wasted a lot of the yellow I had left. Need to order more. (I HATE to run short part way through a stitching run.)
