Sheath for a... Pizza cutter

Recommended Posts

Another sheath for a kitchen utensil with a sharp -ish edge: a cheap pizza cutter. Made from some vegtan scraps. Sheath will likely outlast the cutter it is meant to protect.. 20180924_200904-01.jpeg.c44d87de2664eb775cea42a4464c466a.jpeg

Still struggling consistently hit the line at the back... I do little projects such as this to practice - looks like I'll have to look for more scraps!

That ain't looking too bad on the backside. Are you using a scribe line on the back too?

I have to make this! And a vegetable peeler sheath! And a micro planet sheath! 

It’s scary in the drawers...

Thanks for the affirmation, Munky! No, I didn't scribe this one - perhaps unfortunately. Since the stitch line was on a curve, I scribed the front then marked with an overstitch wheel (I think at 4.5 mm per stitch) and then laid it flat before using the awl to make the holes. If I have to do it over, I'll proceed to the stitch clamp from the overstitch wheel.

Thanks Plinker! I must confess that I'm addicted to pizza, but I can't afford to buy all the time... So I've been known to try my hand at it. Still - I think I'm better at the cutting and eating part than at the baking!

Thanks Scooby! And thanks for putting some ideas in my head... ;) You're right - lots of scary and sharp stuff hiding in the kitchen drawer that need trousers... Hmmm - potato peeler sheath? Will have to dream up a design... Or have you made one already?

These are actually great little projects to try out ideas and learn from failures... Like using a scribe line on the back to aim for with the awl.

Baie dankie Wreford! Waardeer dit baie.

(That's Afrikaans for "Thanks a lot. Appreciate it". And the "baie dankie" sounds much like "buy a donkey"... So it's regularly rendered as that by well meaning Saffers 'helping' tourists and businesses visitors understand some of what they hear locals say.)

Why not? Pizza cutter is nothing but a GENUINE round knife!
