Sheath. Not a case for a Pez dispenser

Recommended Posts

20181017_081817.thumb.jpg.503e3ad9dca30105136cf303892cff68.jpgI was asked to do this but, didn't want to it a look like a case for a Pez dispenser. Because of its shape I wanted to get away from its natural looks. So I used one of my basic design for a sheath and built up a welt really thick 5 layer. I was able to keep it from looking like it didn't belong. I used 3 different colors to dye tan, mahogany, and black

I never would've thought of doing it that way but I'm glad you did, it looks really cool and the work is neat as well.

Were the holes "dremel-drilled"? I sure wouldn't want to try to get through all of that with a diamond awl!
Nice job.

Thank you for your comments I did break 4 needles while putting it together. It is a real thick welt 5  pieces thick 7 with outer,  but I think the thickness actually is a real cool look. Sure it makes the job much harder but in the end that's what makes the difference taking the easy route is less rewarding

Excellent job, from the shape to the stamping, the edging and the dyeing. I also like the stitch pattern on the back for the belt loop. It adds a bit of interest compared to the standard 2 lines of stitching along the edges of the belt loop.

Nice job.

That was MY first thought, too, Jazz! :lol:

Very nice piece!
