#3 Leather sheath opinions

[Mark Behnke]

I've concentrated on clean cuts and uniformity, balance, if that makes since.
The stitching is better but the overall dirty look bothers me.

What can I do to improve my work the most?

Wipe your work down with mineral spirits when your done putting it together. It picks up you natural oils and others along the building process.

I would reverse your back panel/belt loop configuration.....the entire back panel should be (IMO)the hair side, then fold the loop in and stitch it within the pouch, as you did the spacer. Let me know if you don't follow, I'll send pix of what I mean.

Other than that......do more....and more...

That is so simple and so much better, I could have eliminated that ugly rough side, I feel like such a numskull for not seeing that, Thanks, and post some pics. I'll try the mineral spirits too.
