Leather sheath pics

[Shotgun]

I need to make a sheath for my trail hawk and wanted to get a few ideas so I thought some of you guys could help me out by showing sheaths you use on your hawks/hatchets.

I have recently tried my hand at making a few sheaths for my CCF hawks.
The square front tanish one was my first and the black my second, after some time to see what I liked. All it took was some leather, snap kits, copper rivets and contact cement. It has been a fun learning experience.
I hope to make a nicer one for my damascus bear claw hawk next. I used rawhide strips for hanging them on me.
It is fairly easy to do. Have fun.

What kind of tools do you need to do the snaps?

You'd have to ask Brian Andrews brother...he made it for me a while back...you can catch him on the Wilderness forum or over at RatChat.

You will need a drill to make the holes in the leather and a hammer to flare the snap piieces together. The snap kit contains a little tool to flare and a little backer to hold the other piece that is used. It is a really easy operation.
You can even get the snap kits at the ole wallyworld.
