My new Pocket Kephart, beautiful lacewood. Plus I made it little belt sheath.

Here is the sheath. I rushed and it shows a bit. I got impatient and made silly mistakes. I messed up the stitching holes, they are a bit crooked and less symmetrical than I like. Then when stitching it I somehow didn't use enough thread (no idea how I did that), and ran out so I had to tie off and start with new thread 3/4 of the way through. But all in all it looks ok for how frustrated I was getting.

For you leather guys out there. I use Tandy Carnauba Cream to finish stuff like this. I have been wanting to use something else, like beeswax or ...well anything. I want to try something new. Suggestions?

Nice pictures and sheath. That knife sure is special looking with that size handle and wood. John made you a one of a kind, I haven't seen it's equal. I am sure that may change after you posting it. Thanks C.

That is the only one I have made. Several Mini Kepharts, but only one Pocket Kephart.
