Just finished this one tonight.  Knife is a stock removal blade I made from O-1 tool steel. Handle is elk antler bolster and womans tongue wood.  

I was happy with how the sheath turned out.  Wicket and Craig saddle skirting, green deer skin liner, carved oak leaf and basket weave stamping.  Stitched on a needle awl Randal Campbell sewing machine.

 

As always constructive criticism welcome

Sheath and blade go together really well. The white thread is a bit of a statement. Nice job.

Kindest regards

Thanks rockoboy.  I always like the white thread contrast.  However some do not.  I could dye it of course . Or gasp but colored thread and change it :o:)

Both are very nice!!

Worked in a prison for 30 years if I aint shiny every time I comment its no big deal, I just don't wave pompoms.

Nice!  and tiny basketweave too.  I find that is more difficult to do than it might seem.

Thanks.  Yes I feel the smaller ones can be tougher to keep lined up!

Wonderful! The rolled edge of the deerskin over the opening of the sheath is a REALLY nice touch that I don't believe I've seen before....and done so cleanly! Beautiful!
