I wanted to do a leather sheath that can handle a tek-loc and this is what came out. It's got a stiff liner "frame" sandwiched between the leather to keep it rigid with extra long chicago screws holding the tek-loc in (they just happen to fit perfect in the tek's recessed holes. :) )

Thanks for looking --

I like it Michael ! It's a no nonsense rig with a lot of style. The screws just add to the pattern. They might look better darker but I'm undecided on that.
I haven't used the teclocks yet. I haven't even seen one in person yet but I might check them out this week.
 
Michael,
How come I didnt get to see these finished sheath pics hmm? Holding out on me eh? I can't wait till it arrives! You do awesome work. (To everyone who hasn't had a chance to order from Michael, he is a great man to do business with. Jump on it while he is still cheating himself with low prices!)

There's gotta be some surprises when you open the box. :D
 
I like that! Very classy and an excellent way to use "technology" in a traditional way. If I may offer one suggestion, align all the screw slots in the same direction. (Only retentive people like me will notice this, I'm sure. :D But to me it's like not aligning mosaic pins, and it's free.)

Way to go Michael, always raising the bar... :D
 
No worries, folks. I will snap pictures a post a glowing review when the dang thing arrives. Michael sent me some pictures, but I am waiting to actually get it before I post any of his pics. I agree with the suggestion of darker and aligned screws...but I can handle that myself. As far as things I _can't_ do myself (design and construction), Michael does a great job.
Waiting patiently,
Jonathan
 
The sheath is very nice, Michael, and the inlays really matched the knife handle. Looking forward to see the knife that's inside it.
