Nice stitching! Did you use a groover to recess the stitches? Its looks like you did...very pro looking!

Hi there.  Thank you so much.  Yes they are recessed with a groover.  I prefer the look as well as abrasion resistance.

Firewalker, if I may...what stitching groover do you use and what do you use for punching the holes? Thanks for your time.

Very nice! I really like that color with the white thread. Dig the Punisher skull too.

Hi James, my stitch groover is nothing fancy.  I picked it up at Tandy when I started.  I bought both types, meaning one cutter is along the central axis of the handle and the other one the cutter is on the side bar (I prefer to use this one for some reason)  I think each of them are around $10-12 at Tandy.  I don't see a name on them.   These sheaths are so thick that I decided to drill the holes instead of chisel.  It was done on a drill press with what I believe was  a 1/8" bit.   Thanks for the interest!

Thank you kindly.   I really like contrasting thread a lot especially if you can get a nice stitch in.  Thanks again
