  Interesting that you went with a brass button instead of a snap.  The shape is unusual but attractive.  For sheaths, I used to use a basketweave stamp.  I would put crescents around the border and do the basketweave at an angle in the center.  It looks good and takes little effort.  Wet the leather a little before using a stamp.  Very nice Leatherman sheath.  Best wishes.  Gary

Nice work on both of them. I like the stud buttons, easier to open and close and as reliable as the snaps. One hint: if you cut a little line from the center of the hole, you can make the hole smaller/tighter.

Like this:


Maybe not such a long cut, I suggest starting small and increasing the cut until the stud can get in the hole.

Thank you. I am still in the process of gathering more tools and stamps is my next purchase. These two sheaths are my trial runs and mine.
The next one I am busy with will be for a friend. The money I get for it will go towards the stamp.

I actually have two that have been requested and will be sold. The second one will be basket weave.

Cool tip, thanks. I usually like something different to the norm, that's why the shape of the sheath and the stud.

One thing I forgot to mention: the cut should be opposite the tip of the flap, so the stud presses against the round part when closed.

So my oldest asked me if I could guide him making a leather sheath for his knife and I said yes thinking it could be a fun project and I was kinda surprised. Now, I haven't made any sheath or hardly touched my tools for a few years and when he started to ask me questions I realized that I have to make a sheath of my own to remember the steps and how to measure the thing.

I had a mora bushcraft black that I never use (my wife does borrow it from time to time) and I figured it would be a good start. This is not really the design he is going for but he only wants one row of stitching (I prefer two) so that's what I'm doing here. I don't know much about this piece of leather other than it's thick but really soft. Not ideal but I'm not going to use this sheath anyway.

I'd say it turned out quite well. Maybe one of these days I'll get hold of the tools and start leather working myself.

So, even though I made the sheath to refresh my memory I could not let it go. So I did another line and added cross stitch to cover up the top and did some along the handle as well. Don't know if it should go all the way down or stay the way it is now?  :dunno: :think:

What do you guys think?

Nice! :tu: ,, I didn’t make these but I ripped the stitching out and restitched them with diff color string to give it a match to the sak’s that I switched the scales on, I also added it to the flap to give it a little more color, the red/black one is the kids, Deadpool is one of his fav characters, and well, the beast is one of mine,,

Nice work! I think that's what it's all about. Making your stuff yours, factory making are only suggestions

Thanks, huh, I never thought of it that way, I always saw it like cheating,, huh, I’m sure I posted this back in the day, it’s a pancake totally by scratch, (and I do mean by scratch cause I had to make the dye from just things around the house) I think this is the one that looks odd, but who cares, so long as it does its job, and now that I think of it, this might fit what I’m carrying, hmm, yeah I loose the steel, but when have I ever used it while out, so this should be better since I twisted my back and have been wearing a brace for the last few days, and then made it worse by loosing balance and twisting a knee and having to wear another brace, and to top it off I’ve got the Mrs doing some exercise so we’re going for a walk daily,, hmm,  :think:
