Can't beat a simple pouch sheath! 🙌

That looks easy enough. I'm starting the process of learning how to make sheaths for the knives I make so I'm glad it doesn't seem to hard or costly.

Love it! Old world craftsmanship has been all but forgotten. I've been thinking about learning some leather craft and this just makes me want to even more. Thanks!

[BurnsBlades]

Turned out great! I made the switch not too long ago to using leather lacing needles to stitch. They are a bit thinner, but are flexible. Makes the saddle stitch a little bit easier when dealing with smaller holes.

That is the kind of sheath i'd like to make some day!

Good jab man, just found your channel. Looking forward to watching more of your stuff cheers from Calgary

The sheath goes well with the knife. Nice job on both.

[kevinsmith]

Absolutely love this. Great work. Man you have inspired me.

[abinadiflores]

Beautiful work. I'm interested in learning how to do this, do you have a tutorial where you go step by step?

Hi I am French,

I started fair2mes leather cases thanks to videos like yours. after all it's not that complicated.

THANKS.

sorry my english is not great.

[bluesalamander]

love this ! where do you source your leather please thank you.

Thanks, quick and simple overview. I just need the detail about forming it to the hilt since my son has one he is carving the hilt for and I'm going to have to help him build the sheath.

Man that was great. Very cool brother.

I know this is a old video but what color is that leather dye ? It really makes that leather pop I love it ! keep up the great work and content mate. Love it all the way from AUSTRALIA

It looks like this was done almost completely by hand? No machines? That's freaking amazing!

[THEAngryProjects]

Incredible video as always but I get ask why don't dye before gluing?

[Bordashblades]

What weight is the leather? It doesn't look like you wet form the leather around the knife, do you find you don't need to do this? Do the vises leave marks in the leather? When you punch using the pricking iron, does it completely penetrate the other side or do you have to use an awl to get a full through hole? Sorry for all the questions, I'm trying to perfect my leather sheath making.

Nice video showing the process to make the sheath, what would be nice is a video showing how to make a template with details on allowance for clearance, sticking does that on youtube.

Good timing buddy just got the leather and tools to do the same
