Cold Steel "Drop Forged" complete makeover

Just dropped a new video of me breaking down a Cold Steel "Drop Forged Bowie" knife and pairing it with a custom hand-tooled leather sheath of my own design.

Cool video, thanks for sharing. I like how you mix old techniques with modern techniques.

Thanks. Though some people in my comments would argue with that! If I don't skin & tan the hide myself and cut the leather with a flint knife, it's not "handmade".

It's handmade for sure. I saw your hands making those cuts and lacing. You did it all.

Turned out really well. Thanks for sharing.
