3 knife sheaths...2 big ones

Recommended Posts

I had the pleasure of making some high end sheaths for some Randall made knives, thought I would share the results,  All are made with Wickett and Craig skirting, deer skin lined.  One has an I lay the others some basic tooling.   As always open to thoughts on how to improve.   Hope everyone is making leather stuff and enjoying the journey

OK folks,  I tried uploading the pics,   but keeps failing, with a exclamation point in a triangle and a -200 message?   Never had that before.   Any help?

I agree if I can figure out why the upload isn't working

Are the pics too big? If so, edit them in paint; RESIZE

That's my guess.   I just upgraded to a new phone and I'm posting from the phone so not sure how to resize from the phone hmmmm

I have to do like RossR.  Send them to your pc and then resize them.  I normally size my  pics for posting to 6 X 4 inches at 72 cpl  That give me a pic under 1K and will work with every forum I've used.

Here's an example.

That's a good question. I believe it to be some form of snake skin but I'm not sure.  It came from a shop buyout years ago and was in with a few other snake skins.  Oddly there's a stamp on the back that I can kinda read I think says made in Switzerland.    Anyway I thought it looked nice so I went with it.

 

Thanks for the kind words folks.

Hard to do justice on a Randall knife but you did. I don't know if I have a favorite though, they are all three beautiful and fitting for their respective knife.

Scales that small and that "tight", I would have guessed some type of lizard (which I consider a PLUS, it doesn't "flake" like most snake does).

I would agree but the shape was just like the other snake skins...so it's a mystery....

 

 

Thanks for the compliments

Very kind thank you.  The customer was very happy as well and other than the color black for the one I was told make something nice.
