=> Sexy Pants For My Fatty!

[Boar-gen]

Making leather sheaths is fun and this is my latest creation and it’s for my EDC- a .270" Fatty GW.

I am a leather newbie, so improvements can for sure be done- but I am very happy with this one since it’s my most comfortable high carry sheath!

Keeps the knife at a convenient 45 degrees angle and can be carried on the sides, in front or behind my back. The leather has a very secure grip on the knife.

That was my last pieces of leather, but I am waiting for more to arrive. Then I will make one more of this design- but in black color.

Wow- thank you all for your feedback! Really means a lot to me as ‘leather newbie’ and with this great encouragement I just have to continue my leather explorations and improve further! Thank you all!!!

I will take the requested pictures once I come home this weekend and post them here.

Thanks!

P.S. If anyone is interested in making this “pancake sheath” for your own use, please let me know and I send you a CAD drawing (dfx format) of my design. If you are a ‘leather newbie’ as me, I can also give you instructions on the steps I took in order to make this one.

Here are the requested pictures. First a picture on my .270” Fatty GWs. One user and one safe queen (so far). Sorry for the quality!

Then a close up picture on the sheath mounted behind my back.

The handle has a perfect angle for easy grabbing of the knife.
