Hi Everybody,
Just thought I would share this.
My Brother (friend just is not accurate) that lives in OH had a special request.
And to say it stretched me is a little light
The Mojo is a recurve and they honestly do best in one of my Exposed Spine© sheaths
But the Zombie Skin sheaths work best with a pancake fully eyelet-ed sheath.
Well I figured lets stitch it around the opening.
Sounds easy
Had to drill little tiny holes in the kydex
then when the skin dried had to drill little holes in it
then stitch.
well when that was done, I could not have nice shiny black eyelets
so I brushed the eyelets down to brass but shiny brass would not work so I antiqued them and made them look weathered or a 100 years old.
Cool so my Exposed Spine © sheaths work with a rubber Strap that I hand make, but how weird would that look ? A new black rubber strap on my old beat up zombie skin sheath.
Not good
So I made a leather strap then beat it, burned it, and made it old, even antiqued the pull the dot snap.
Hope he likes it
