She was making another one today for the "little sexy tanto"! She also recently finished up one for the .360" glow tanto.
I'm really happy with the leather, they look awesome and have great retention with no scratching. My wife is using really thick leather and welt construction so the sheaths are really long lasting... the stitching has been doubled over and is recessed in a groove so it won't wear through. We spent a lot of time on research and money on tools so our sheaths are the best! Even the contact cement we use is premium, the leather will rip before the glue bond breaks.
Right now each sheath is about two full days work!

Bad photos, great leatherwork! All made by my wife Sara.
The business card holder is stamped with old hand made stamps we bought on the reservation nearby, they are made from old valves, files, punches or even rebar. I am amazed by the clean detail on such small handmade stamps.
The flower is her first tooled leather piece, she cut the detail by hand with a swivel knife then did the rest with a few stamps and burnishers!
The sheaths are for the Damascus/dino bone knife and the .360 glow tanto!

Exactly!
She really appreciates the kind words! I can't believe how nicely the tooling came out, I tried some and it was pretty tough.
