You bet!
Fine job.....I’m just finishing up sheath number two. I’m liking the diamond chisels way better than the flat .This one went a lot smoother than the first one (almost no swearing.). I have some tidying up to do and I’m still trying to decide on which finisher to use (leaning towards leather balm with Atom wax). Overall, I think it turned out pretty well, I’m not crazy abou
the belt loop, I will definitely be focusing more on that for the next build. The fit and retention are very good, I will be putting this one to use.

Had a request for one of Spyderco’s larger folders, it was much thicker than I expected but the sheath works great
This one is made for left side carry, so I had to make it while looking in a mirror

Thanks, on the embossing I put two coats of bag kote and carefully using a small artist brush dyed around with black dye. Afterwards I used a mixture of bag kote and black highlighter to brush into the embossing to bring out the details

Sheath #3. I’m working through my blades with no sheaths. Just finished this one for my SRKW Galley Rat. Rather than use a patch, I countersunk the snap this time. Not the greatest leather but I’m working through it.

Second inlay. This time used thinner leather for the overlay and ostrich leg skin. Still need to finish the edges.
Looking good.

Finished up my first mechanics/musicians belt. I’ve been wearing one like this for years and knew I wanted to make myself one once I got comfortable making belts.
The 3D printer saved me from having to order and wait for a pattern.
I’ll definitely be making more of these in the near future!
