Members pitersek Posted April 28, 2018 Members Report Posted April 28, 2018 Hello, I would like to present you my last work - knife sheath for a knife by polish knifemaker Giedymin Kapuscinski. Knife is Dunedain Fighter - Middle Earth Series. So I tried to make my sheath also in middleearth style. It is just my impression, I like to think that there once was an elf who carried set like this :). I used veg tan leather, fiebings oil dye, eco flo antique gel, and barry king stamp. All stitching is made by hand, using 9 SPI iron, and 6 SPI chisel. If you have any questions about technical issues - please ask, I will do my best to answer. It would mean a lot if you give me your thoughts about it! Quote Fb Gallery: imgurInstagram
bikermutt07 Posted April 28, 2018 Report Posted April 28, 2018 That is a beautiful combo. Quote 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.
Members kiwican Posted April 28, 2018 Members Report Posted April 28, 2018 I'm no elf. And I don't play one in TV either but that's a sweet combo Quote
garypl Posted April 28, 2018 Report Posted April 28, 2018 Beautiful work and the detail is amazing. Your edges also are superb and that is a solid knife to go with it! What weight leather did you use for the various pieces? Gary Quote Cowboy 4500, Consew 206RB-4
