Very nice dwardo. Looks like some good heavy duty leather.
rich

Agree. Looks like a long-laster. Keep it conditioned well and I believe that will last a couple of generations.
Heavy-duty work. dang god job.

God Bless

My little hatchet was in need of a new getup for a trip out a few weeks back. Dont usually take the hatchet as its a little small but I had a bunch of other tools to carry so the smaller weight was welcome.
It fits on the belt and the axe drops in from the top. This stops me putting the sheath down and losing it,.,,again..







My little lad loving the drill

Yes mate, just saddle stitched, funny how over a big pond all the terms change
The thicker welts are sanded flat then I dye and finish with carnuba edge cream. Then a coat of clear wax over it all. I just use dubbin.
