Knife Sheath
« on: February 04, 2008, 01:59:42 am »
This is a sheath I made for the guy that put me to work while my real estate business is slow. Someone else made the knife and added the old antler or bone handle scales. Eric asked me to make him a sheath  so I used scrap leather, a scrap of a snake skin that was chrome tanned over 30 years ago, a little contact cement and artificial sinew. I think it turned out nice. I'm sure Eric will love it.     Pat

Dang Pat, your generosity never ends.  That is a great looking quiver.  Maybe you could come out and work for me for a while.  ;D Justin

That looks good Pat!  You reckon a piece of air dried skin glued to leather with Barge cement would hold up very well?

That's plum spiffy, Pat. Good looking sheath, and the snake hide really sets it off.

Thanks everyone. I used to own a custom leather shop(over 30 years ago) and still have some of my tools. I enjoy leather work and often wonder why I don't do more. ??? ::)   
   I gave it to Eric today and he freaked. Knowing me pretty well, he wasn't expecting it for a year or so. Maybe he'll give me a raise. ;)    Pat

  Nice work Pat that is awesome. You got a great heart, and I can relate to someone being surprized by recieving something befor a year or so.   I had so many projects that went on hold while dealing with the health the  last two years. that I wonder if I'll ever get back on track.   Keenan

good looking combo pat.  if things are slow, you can come and sub here at the high school.  we are in desperate need of subs and you can crash with me.
