Black Machete Sheath

[CarlDeCruz]

Hi.
This is a sheath i just finished for carrying a machete in my saddle. It´s made from 6mm thick leather, darkened with vinegaroon and sanded to give it a worn out finish..

Part of the process:

Nice looking sheath. I bet it could outlive the machete.

It will... those machetes are good but not eternal.. nor expensive, they cost like 12 dollars here in colombia.

Knives are cheap there too. Have you tried selling your sheaths in the US?

I demand photos of it on the saddle! Partly because I want to see the saddle.

I swear I'll get a frog done up for my 1908 Indian Cavalry Saber one of these days. No point in having a cavalry sword if you've got no way for it to go on your horse.

it is a good cattle-working saddle i just got 2 months ago to replace my old one.

the saddle and "garrocho" my best horse are not close now... but i will take the pictures.
