I'm still getting to know my machine, but now have results to share. I'm definitely converted to machine stitching after just one go at it.......

Heck yeah! That looks great! I always love the diehard "I only stitch by hand" crowd. They're always so adamant about it, which is fine, everyone has their preferences and choices to make in life. Personally, after hand stitching for a year, then getting my Cobra Class 4, I honestly never want to stitch anything again by hand. And, since I've had it, I thankfully have not.
 
Here's the way I see it. Gives the sheath a completely different look. Production knife, machine sewn, full custom, hand sewn.
Nice job on that sheath

I have a Cobra class 4 but still stitch better than my machine.

That's awesome. Me = not so much! :) I got tired of crooked lines on the back. My sheaths needed to match the quality of the knives they were providing protection for...I just wasn't getting there with hand stitching.
 
Thanks guys for the positive comments on my sheath. I'm loving leather working.....wish I'd have discovered the contentment it brings me years ago.
