Whacha Been Up To......

I really like these !! 👍👍 I have that bottom stamp, you did an excellent job lining that up !!!

Thank you, Bill. There were a number of “test” scraps that went into the bin before that sheath. Haha.
 
Here’s one I did awhile back. Came to mind as I just built a sheath for same make knife. REK ember knife

The rig breaks down so one can use the sheaths individually 👍 I’m sure Sharp & Fiery Sharp & Fiery knows this one 😉😉👍

Looks vaguely familiar. ;)
I haven’t gotten a chance to review it yet, as hunt season this year was nonexistent for me. :(
I’m sorry, Bill.

What I can say is, the quality is superb, knife retention is more than excellent and I’m looking forward to breaking it in. :)

Sorry to hear about your hunting season,

I’m glad to hear you like it 😁👍👍

I actually ended up with a large ember myself 👍

Both Embers are a joy, but the 3.5 is a perfect “all round” (loosley used) knife. Congrats!
 
Those sheaths look amazing!

Thank you 😁😁😁 I’m trying 👍

I still need to put the retention strap on the black sheath, then it ships out 👍
The horizontal loop on the black sheath is removable. That way you could use an ulticlip or mummert for different carry.
 
I recall us talking about thread colors and that some run different. Well, black thread is the nemesis to my machine. Pulls out of the bobbin like 36 grit sandpaper, won't function with thick leather. Switch to brown, smooth as glass. Same company's thread.

Yup my machine hates black too. Blue requires a longer stitch length. I bond together test pieces for thread color changes.
 
Been doing some holsters:

Two more holsters to finish off today.

Rough out spur straps with silver conchos and nickel buckles:

Those are really NICE holsters, and I do have a question that shows just how ignorant I am on making holsters. Is the piece of leather on the back side of holster smaller than the front side so all the shape forming is on the front allowing the back side to lay flat? It just seems the holster would wear better if back side laid flat with all shaping on front side. BUT - my lack of knowledge requires me to check on how and best way this is done. Thank ya'll for any comments and guidance.
