keithl Posted May 28, 2011 Posted May 28, 2011 Hi guys just finished the second rasp up and wanted to try some rawhide for the sheath. Well this is how it turned out. Tell me what you think. Regards Keith. Quote
Ecart Posted May 29, 2011 Posted May 29, 2011 That looks really good. What are the specs on that thing? Quote
bigfootnampa Posted May 29, 2011 Posted May 29, 2011 A very cool looking piece of rawhide! What is that little eyespot on it? I am not sure that I like the rivets where they could dull the blade though. Could you use a thick leather (or rawhide) welt to protect the stitches instead? Neat looking knife and even neater looking sheath! Quote

Neat looking knife and even neater looking sheath! Thanks bigfootnampa for the comments. I wrapped a leather sheath with the rawhide. Under the eyespots I inlaid python belly. I agree, I should have set the rivets closer to the edge. It has a leather welt but had to double up some thin leather to thicken it up. I need to get more thick leather. Thanks again, Keith. Quote
David Einhorn Posted May 29, 2011 Posted May 29, 2011 Very very nice! The knife has nice lines, proportion and I really like the overall appearance. Thank you for sharing. Quote
