I just finished this sheath for Rockywolf's Knatchet, and I just need the stupid buckle and clips I ordered to make the shoulder strap for it.

There is a leather wedge reinforced by an eyelet to work together with the retention strap to keep the blade firmly in place. This is an open-spine design with an integral belt loop/retention strap/baldric anchor setup. Difficult to pull off but pretty cool if I do say so myself. I waterproofed this like I do to all of my work, but I don't know that you should use it for a paddle :p

Lol, well your knife arrived from John over the weekend but I've been slaving away at this and that wedding order (I swear, that thing is gonna kill me before it's through! Wedding orders must be cursed!) so I haven't gotten to start on it yet, but I'll shoot you an e-mail before I do.

the steel just needs some patina to make it match the distressed leather.

You probably won't see Rocky respond in here. His head probably exploded when he saw this setup.

Hi Noah -

How much do you charge for one of those? Would I need to send you my Knatchet to have it fit for a sheath?

Your work is just...WOW.....

I would need the Knatchet in order to mold the sheath to fit, and it would be between $60 and $80 depending on what you want, but we can work that out in e-mail :)

I have been able to fight off the urge to buy the knatchet with the other knives already ordered, but seeing this, now I am in trouble again, I want a knachet and a Wasteland sheath. Good lokoing sheath!
