Okay I was hoping to get this a little more done before posting but I just can't wait no more. So here it is, I have been working on making a couple of pocket sheaths for the JK Toby's Knife, in the name of doing a Christmas giveaway of sorts.

Bear in mind that I don't make 'em as good as JK or RG or Wasteland etc, but they work.

I don't really know how to do this, I don't mean to sell them, auction seems a bit strong. I can't offer much of a variety either because My JK hoard is a little low at the moment but...

What to do:
Here's what I'm thinking, if you have a JK Toby's Knife and would like a pocket sheath for free, please send me an email (pahoward@hotmail.co.uk), or if you want one just for kicks or because you think it'll hold another knife (or pens, pencils whatever.)

HOWEVER I would think it mighty cool if you sent a donation to JK for Hanna as well, I thought it'd be good to send some "whatever" money - Christmas is coming, her birthday, or of course the medical bills, just...whatever.

I have only made 6 so far and I'm still working on them, especially the white leather (it's thicker and I'm having a harder time getting them finished to my liking.) I'm hoping the thanksgiving break will get me the chance to finish them up and make some more, so I could ship out next week.

I'll email you back with the paypal account for those donations (same as the auctions I figure). You don't have to, and I won't check, but you'd be mighty cool in my book if you could. I figure if I can get another 4 made, and 10 people donate even $5, thats a tank of gas (maybe) to go somewhere, a present, lots of chocolate, a movie to watch, magazines to read...etc.

You've all donated much already, so consider the "sheath" a free thank you, hopefully they won't be a poor thank you when I'm done.

One Last thing I'd like to say if it's okay with you: The Toby's Knife (JKTK) was specifically named after my son, Toby James Patrick-Howard, who died of SIDS. For anyone who doesn't know, SIDS is a diagnosis of exclusion, it just say's they have checked for everything they can think of, and they don't know. I don't talk about it a lot, I don't want to, and I don't like to. I don't mean to invoke him to get your dough either. But JK helped me design and let me name a knife for Toby, this gave me a kind of solace, which is no small thing. Anyway, I think it'd be cool if Toby could help Hanna a little to, like John helped me.

Happy thanksgiving everyone, I'm thankful for all of you.

This is amazing. To put yourself out there with your love and pain for all to see takes GUTS. I admire that. Put me on the list and I will have to get a knife to fit it!
 
I love the generosity I find everyday on this forum..put me on the list as well. That's a good looking sheath and id be honored to donate.
 
Nice job Peter - you ROCK!

Thank Jk and all, list added to

rockywolf, thanks, i was a little more nervous then I'd thought, that helped,

mqqn, nothridge, want one? I imagine I'm going to have spares - no pressure :)

I got the next four cut out ready to be decorated and stitched while kids were taking a nap this afternoon, planning on making some in a slightly different style since it seems I'll have time, need some more leather finish though :)
 
Hey Pete,me too please.
I have a Toby's Knife & the sheath fits an LRK+ with thin scales.
I also have a thin scaled LRK+ with no sheath so this is a very opportune offer for me & my skinny LRK+.
Your sheaths are looking better & better and I would love one for my poor pantless skinnyass LRK+.
Thanks Pete,you rock dude.

:D

I'll include a personal donation with the next check from knife sales I send for Hanna.(should be next week)
 
last four are getting wet formed, two at a time (I need two more JK TK's methinks :)) I'm starting to make them a little g=larger so 1" knives will fit for those without JKTK's or similar just in case.
 
I Peter -

Once you get the sheaths made for the TKs, I can send you a knife to have you make a sheath for -

This is a very nice thing you are doing, and I think I better have a KYenglish Sheath ;^)

Peter, if you ever need any cardboard patterns of any of my knives, let me know.
 
sure thing, andy, email me for my address and stuff when you're ready, or we could take john up on his generous offer?

thanks john!

Hey Pete,got the sheath today & all I gotta say is......THANK YOU!
It fits my skinny LRK+ perfect,nice & snug.
I like the lack of a belt loop too,it makes it perfect for pocket carry or throwing in a pack which is how I carry most knives.

Unfortunately I forgot to send along my donation with the check I sent Connie this morning.:(
But don't worry,I do know the PP address.
