Hi Everybody,

I had a customer send me an e-mail asking if I can make a really custom sheath.

He said something to the effect;

This is what I want;

Imagine you are an archeological explorer and you end up in the bottom of an ancient Egyptian tomb and as you are searching you come across a knife and it needs a sheath.
You look around and find some old canvas from years ago
You are attacked by a fierce Mummy after defeating him you rip some of the bandaging off of his mummified corpse and add it to the sheath.
as you search around you find an ancient explorers pouch with a leather strap, you add that to the sheath.
then as you are piecing together everything you have found from the scraps in the ancient SCRAPYARD.
The aliens the helped with the building of the pyramids fire laser beams at you but luckily you have you trusty sheath to block them.
when the smoke clears and you are able to gather your wits, you notice the laser beams have left funny markings on the leather strap.
Later you find out that the funny markings are hieroglyphics that in fact translate to SCRAPYARD.

I think I did OK and the sheaths new owner loved it :)

I always find it amazing when someone can take another mans vision and turn it into a tangible object that exactly fits the original thought. Dave is a true craftsman.
