Well, in fact that's one of my very few leather sheaths and exactly first ever leather for Busse. I wanted it to allow easy carry in the bag / suitcase, but also with possibility to put it on belt easily. So that's my idea of how to make it in "an elegant way". But also COMBAT WAY, at the leather is from old heavy rifle barrel cover from Polish Army (quite old... 1950-1960 approx. so reconditionning was quite a job as well). Lanyard is made of the same leather. Hope you like it...

"Hope you like it... "

I like it :D :D

Very nice work :thumbup: :thumbup:
 
Piter, I know you're much more a Busse user than collector, so let me ask you this: (BTW, nice sheath!)
How you like the feel of the Bad Warden? Personally, I think they feel okay, but I thought the edges could use a little rounding off, and that it might be rather uncomfortable without gloves or a little grinding around the edges. Any thoughts?

Grow some callouses and quit whining like a little girl? :confused: :p :D


Seriously though, you could probably round the edges down with the right tools.
 
Walking Man, this one is for now my "tactical letter opener" and sits in my laptop case... and with the look & feel as it is now it's simply AWESOME. Functional too. BUT... I take other knives to the jungle, of course ;) SO in fact I haven't even thought about rounding these cool shapes...

(btw, regular Game Warden on the way to me)
 
Okay, I've got to admit, I'm a bit curious. How did you go about reconditioning the leather?
 
I think I would like to have a similar one with a GW skelly!! Piter thanks for the inspiration on that one. J:D

Exactly! :thumbup: Great job on that one, Piter! I may just have to strip my skelly now, too. :D
 
That is soooo nice.
I am waiting for a tan canvas in the mail. Damn holiday!!!
Hope you don't mind me using it on my desk top?
What are the inserts?
Thanks!
