Decided to make a sheath with a flap for my SAK Electrician .

O wow! You did an absolutely amazing job.  That looks fantastic

A little chunky for my taste, but the quality shines through.

Thats more great work Ken

Nice work! Is the button riveted trough and touching the knife on the inside?

I can't get a picture of it but the stud base on the inside of the sheath is covered with leather . It's not obvious but the edge of the sheath at the opening is rolled over and I extended a strip of  thin leather further down into the sheath to cover the stud .

With that confirmed taken care of, outstanding design!

Love it! The only thing I'm not to fond of is the two studs in the back, there going to be pushing right into your hip with your belt pulling in, no? JR

[Styerman]

Nice work . I like the way you do your welts .

Unless you wear your belt and knife against your bare skin ( like that girl coming out of the ocean in the James Bond movie ) 
Then you never know they are there , worn with a normal pair of jeans or pants I'd challenge anyone to honestly say they feel them . The pictures are quite deceiving , this sheath isn't very big at all and those studs aren't large or sharp in anyway .

Challenge accepted, send me one

That's fine work! Wish you were in the states.

Need a low profile holster made to replicate one I already have...Not for a knife that is.
Something that goes BOOM!

That sheath is just awesome!!

[Random Dan]

That looks really nice, great work!

Thanks guys , I appreciate the compliments .
I've made a few other sheaths since that one , but gave them away before getting any decent photos of them . It's funny because I'll be working on a sheath and someone will come around to see me about other stuff . By the end of their visit they have conned me into gifting  the as yet unfinished sheath to them .
One guy even started ringing me up every night to see if it was ready yet and was getting impatient ( talk about looking a gift horse in the mouth  )
I actually took it as a compliment because it showed he really liked it and wasn't just being polite when I offered it to him .
I'm working on a sheath for a CRK small Seb at the moment which is for me and no one else. I've thrown away the first 3 attempts so far , this one has to right and they just didn't feel correct design wise .

Looking forward to seeing the results on that one Ken.
