Thanks mate :)

I am still deciding about the drain hole. I don't usually use them but its not a bad idea..

Thanks everyone for your posts..
 
Well I finished one except for sealing the sheath. The design has worked out ok I think.

I stamped the sheath in the shape of the blade. I thought the stamp had a pretty good resemblance to the outer coating of the 1311.

I wet formed it around the edge as well. What do you think?

Thanks for your words guys. Much appreciated and very encouraging.

I can't wait to get these to work...
 
Well its been a delayed finish to the project. Mainly due to me knowing what was in store with the second sheath - stitching wise.

I'm happy to say its all done. See below with my Rodent solution and a sheath I made for it.

You can see the new sheath has a glossy look but that won't last long.

This project was epic for me. Epic because these babies are exactly what I was looking for.

Epic due to the amount of work to get them clothed. These guys will be seeing plenty of bush time.

Thanks everyone for your kind words.
