That's messed up, sorry it happened to you. Maybe there is a way to fix it?Well... not the best result here. Looks like my edges yellowed a little bit. I can't tell if it's the yellow saddle soap I used or the combination of the saddle soap and the "Medium Brown" dye.
I think it could be the dye, since the yellow saddle soap is said not to leave a color behind? I probably should of gone with black... or dark brown.
Thanks guys, I'll give that a go. Maybe I can get it off. I bet a lot of it is excess.
I just ordered some "Dark Brown" pro dye and am going to exchange the yellow for white.
Merry Christmas yall!
EDIT: Crisis averted... I took your advise Robber58 . I used an old T-Shirt applied with some Obenauf's Heavy Leather Preservative (although I think many items would of worked just fine) and carefully scrubbed those edges. Looks normal now. Thanks!
I find myself reading this sub often but rarely posting. I'd like to change that, here's my two most recent.

First off, Happy New Year to all, let's hope this one will be better.
My latest attempt at a horizontal sheath modeled after the Case sheath.
Retention is pretty good and yes, the loop slides on the belt. I was considering a wider strap for the loop, one with two parallel slits so that you can "weave" your belt thru. That will be my next iteration when I get a little time, I will keep you posted. If you have any suggestions I would love to give them a try.Hows the retention on that and does the loop slide on the belt?
