Just thought I'd share this one . Finished up a sheath for my victorinox german army knife .
Sloppy stiches i know but I'm happy with the result.
It carries vertical or horizontal, made my own dye from boiling walnut husks , buffed out with homemade beeswax/ olive oil paste .
Hope it inspires!
One of my favourite edc knives recently , so light for so many functions.

Just thought I'd add ..... The leather in the background is the original color, the walnut dye took several coats and the beeswax oil darkened it even more .
Make your own dye !!
 
Nice! I use beeswax/olive oil as well. Great for chapped hands or lips aiso.
 
I love leather sheaths and Victorinox SAK's ( don't own a GAK yet )
When you combine the two I get excited .
Interesting idea about the homemade dye .
Great job :thumbup:
