leatherman "sheath"

[Spyros]

I was looking at multitool case ideas, and all the google photos had the typical square pouch, with the press snap and belt loop etc.  I mean nothing wrong with all that, they just kind of look the same after a while

So yesterday I had this random shape offcut in my hand about to throw it out, and I wondered if it was big enough to make something for my leatherman skeletool.  So I started wrapping it around the tool, I liked what I saw, and I just stitched it as it was and cut anything that was sticking out.

Added a grommet and a loop and voila :D

 

I like it because it's not bigger than it needs to be, I find it easy with the large opening to fish the tool out when I need it, and it still "locks" when I pull the loop down and around the back.

And it takes about 15 mins to make one

yeah I think I've bought half the stuff this guy makes, and if it wasn't for the slow shipping I'd probably buy the other half too :D

(BTW excuse the dye stained fingers, I'm sure it happens to most of us LOL)

That is one nifty sheath 

. I like the design, and choice of stitching. Even when I wear gloves I still get the dye, stain  on my hands.

I like that   The 'herringbone' stitch adds a nice touch .

Love the templates in the background

 

(Don't worry about dyed hands, most days my hands are covered in black dye. My nails make me look like a 'goth' )
