Title: knife and sheath set
Post by: missilemaster on March 13, 2016, 10:53:23 pm

Hey guys, here is a knife I forged and tempered out of an old nicholson file. The handle is elk antler with some random tropical wood accents. This was also my first attempt at leatherwork. I actually built the knife first and realized it needed a home. I tried to to give it the same dimpled texture I gave the blade. Boy, leatherwork is a whole lot of fun!! Thanks for looking.

Man Cody, that is cool. I love the knife and the matching sheath just sets it off perfectly.
 Leather work is one of my therapies.  ;)

Not sure why it took you 6 months since you last posted your work, but I'm glad you're finally back! Love seeing the things you create, and this is no exception! Great leather work!

Excellent job on the sheath, with that pattern it is truly unique!  The knife is of course fantastic too.

Cody, that one is a keeper, really like how you made your sheath and knife come together, Also how your belt loop was done, everything just seems to go together. Bob

Oh my. You ever think about building a space elevator or warp drive?  This earthly stuff is just too easy for you. Nice looking blade and sheath Cody.

Well done sir! That is about perfect in my book. State the reason for the added accents of the blade. The nick point and the thumb rest. Sorry for the lack of knowledge of terms.

Also that dimpling on the sheath is fantastic.
