Thread: Playing with leather

Used 6 mm wide goat leather lace (super strong it is too) and punched 3 mm holes . No needle , just tapered the ends to a long point and poked through holes . Used a little screwdriver to stretch holes open for second pass through holes which closes up again a few minutes later .
Yes it's time consuming ....
Have since removed the antler bead from top and added a bit of bling to the front but that's easily removed....




Looking at making a matching pouch for plb and first aid kit. Pouch itself out of remaining suede and top cover/flap and reinforce pouch with the rest of the leather and match the pattern on the leather with the sheath using old antler again with a bit of matching lacing around the flap edge.
See how that ends up....
