WA Martin is the most patient man in the world - and he is a lefty! (DOH!)

So, as you saw in the other thread - I finished up two sheaths for WA Martin and I was very proud of them... until he reminded me he was a lefty.

So - I doubled back, and started over. Here is the FINAL result (Mr. Martin - no take backs - you are getting these whether you like it or not!)

I hope you like them bro - it all goes out tomorrow.

Wait...HIS left or YOUR left?

I think it was my MILITARY left.

Dude - that fiddleback you have in your signature is HOT.

Those look much, much better.

I can hardly wait for these to show up.

You'll have to remember I haven't even held my Fiddleback's yet. They went straight to Tal. My boys are finally coming home!!!

I know man - I am so sorry how long this took. I will box them tonight. I will ship them using USPS priority. You will be able to track them through paypal.

I want to thank you for everything, your patience, your understanding, and you willingness to ask me to do something I had not done. I was getting REALLY burned out - but these projects - being different, were really fun!

Nice work...they look like the bees knees.

Well worth the wait I'm sure :thumbup:

EDIT: Tal - Do you do anything to the back of the Sam Browne stud to stop it scratching the handle? Or is it held clear by the width of the loop?

 

[Diomedes Industries]

This one is held clear by the width of the loop. Because the small pouch does a lot to retain the knife I wanted the loop to simply hold the knife in place in case the user got turned upside down. IF the knife comes slides out a bit, it will hit the palm swell on its way out and be retained.

I wanted it to be quickly off the handle and the knife quickly removed.

Cool, I see that.

Its nice to see that natural leather finish too btw.

Top work again sir.

 

[WA Martin]

Picked them up at the P.O. Thursday night. Still drooling over them. Fine craftsmanship, Tal.
