  These are Black folded knife sheaths made from 6 to 7 oz. Herman Oak drum dyed leather from Springfield Leather.  All are hand stitched, then cased and shaped to fit specific width and thicknesses of knives.  Some knives are different lengths so the snap on the flap will be set when they are purchased.

Those look great. And nice burnishing.

Thanks bikermutt07, I figured these would be less work than sheaths made on the wood forms, but it is about sixes.  I don't like the black thread on black leather as much as I do contrasting thread, but I guess if you like the subdued look it is okay.  The drum dyed leather is pretty stiff  to work with but after neatsfoot oil is applied it loosens up some.  One thing about the Herman Oak leather the edges burnish quite easy.  I am going to make some more with contrasting thread.
