I'm 62 years old and kind of a red neck. I've always made sheathes out of old boots or whatever I could find and lashed them together with leather boot strings. So, using your video, I learned how to saddle stitch! What a gift you gave me! Thank you, brother!
You’re an expert at your craft and its amazing to watch such a tedious craft being performed. Also my favorite thing about your sheaths are the way you texture them on the pavement, such a small detail but adds a ton of character. Love it.
That sheath is as good looking as the most expensive ones. You are a master leather craftsman. Great job. I wish l had one like that for my knife. Quality. You should start selling them. You would make some good money, even if it were a side project. I would certainly buy about 3. God has blessed you. Greetings from West Texas. Out here a man needs constant companions like a rifle and a good knife.
A few questions: why do you use that T word stuff for burnishing? (No idea what you said there) Why do you can on the leather dye? I've not seen that method before Why do you hammer the leather on your driveway?
This looks like the first sheath I ever attempted making. I can't believe you sell these! Sorry just being honest, but it dosent look like you have attention to detail and looks like you cut small corners. Just some constructive criticism
@@RandyCooper85 I've done hundreds now and while I keep getting better, the gains are smaller than they were when I started. This too looks a lot like my first 2 or 3 pieces. My last piece looked like it was machine cut and I still do everything by hand. I'd use that sheath but only for myself, not as a product I would sell. What's sad is he did a lot of things right but cut corners all over that edge work.
Thanks for following along! Let me know what you think in the comments below!

Yea I agree. Doesn't look finished. Although I'm picky. I rejected my first 2 sheaths I made. Still have them as a reminder.

Nice video. Which model Ulticlip did you use for that one?
Thanks! Those are the slim 3.3 versions. They come with screws, but I like the look of the bronze so I buy them separate
No edge coating?
What kind of edge coating would one use? I don't do much leather, in fact I'm horrible at it. What does edge coating do?
