For Sale Custom leather for DEK1 (and other general medium sized knives)

[SwissHeritageCo]

This sheath was patterned from a CPK DEK1 knife. Being pouch style it should fit quite a few other general medium sized knives as well, including the DEK3 from what I've been told. Sheath was designed to emulate the swiss saddlers of old, using the same techniques and materials... it should age beautifully.

*In these photos, I've yet to do the final stage of slicking on the edges due to losing the light and the oil is still drying.

Specs:

- 9oz natural veg. tanned leather
- Neatsfoot oil finish to allow for patina
- French locking saddle stitch
- Cream colored ritza 'tiger' thread
- Compact rounded design, easier to pocket and pack
- Approx. 2" mouth opening, just under 7.5" length from center line
- Elongated belt loop acts as a swivel for easy access/sheathing and is designed for multi carry (higher, lower, or canted at an angle via cross draw)
- Will darken with sun exposure, hand oils, and general use

Let me know if you have any questions.

Can you make them with the belt loop set up for left-hand side carry?

Can you make them with the belt loop set up for left-hand side carry?

If by that you mean a "left handed" version of the above sheath, then yes

There seems to be a little confusion about the slicking/burnishing of the welt. The sheath is done (was completed shortly after pics), the photos were taken just before the final slicking because I was running out of light to take pictures in.
