Here is a sheath I made for a customer who owns a Behring knife.
I think it turned out rather nice!

Beautiful work. :thumbup:

I really like rawhide as "blade armor"--tougher, more scratch-resistant and more water-repellant than tanned leather, but not as noisy in the brush as kydex and not as prone to cracking in sub-freezing temps as kydex. Plus it's ruggedly handsome in a "non-tactical" kind of way. One of my favorite sheath materials.
 
It not only nice, it's terrific! The leather is beautiful and like the added edging, fringe and tassels, it suits perfectly for the stunning knife. Great job!
