I made this sheath for a folder that my dad carried as a kid and I rescued from a slow death in one of his drawers. I redid the edges and cleaned up the knife. It was a cheap Imperial knife (circa 1950's) that hold an edge great and just needed some pants.
So I made this case:
I then sealed it with Neat's foot and wax combination after rubbing pure Neat's foot into the sheath. I 'stressed' it a bit to make it look a little older and worn.
I think it turned out pretty cool.
Line 20 snaps, double stitched at the stress points and the tinyest bit of carving to break up the monotony.

That's some very slick work. :thumbup:
