I have done a couple of sheaths and a frog for a couple of you guys. A Bolo frog, a Sarge knife sheath, and another sheath. The last pic is the R6, I think, I got on the DOTD, the sheath was horrible, but the knife is unbelievably cool. The sheath is a dud that happened in the process of getting the Sarge sheath ready, but will work fine for me. Thats the great thing about duds. I get to keep em.
 
Only the first pic with the R6 was a dud. There was a few duds on the pancake sheath, but I haven't finished stitching them up yet. That one was a bear to get done.
 
The bear of it must be the thickness of the leather and layers . Just to manipulate it let alone stich it must take a lot of care .
 
Looks great!

dress the edges, and you'll be set. :thumbup:
 
Gracias. Yea Kevin the thicker the whelts the more likely for me to mess up the drillholes for the thread. That is why the dud is a dud.
 
Handsome, Andy.









(er...the sheaths, that is. Not you. I didn't mean to imply that I find you attractive. Not that you may not be, but I don't ...er.... Nevermind.)
 
Awesome work Andy...Getcha some edgeing ink and some sandpaper and you will be set...I dig that pancake...Been meanning to work on one and havent gotten around to it...darn sick snakes!!!:mad:


Cant wait for you to see what I have been working on late in the nite, when are all asleep!!muahahahahahaha<~~~demented laugh!!!!;)
 
Gracias bro. Can't wait to see it.
 
Andy,
Don't feel bad about duds. It's a learning process. Every sheath should be a bit better than the last, if you're learning the techniques. Neat, even stitching is not easy to master, but it can be done.
 
Thanks Bri. I'm undaunted. I needed a sheath for the R6 anyway, and dudley though that one is, it'll last for a lifetime, so wha the how?
