Really like working with leather, it's a super satisfying material to work with.

My current work in progress...
Thought I would try something different for this knife so after picking up some more leather offcuts I decided to go 'blingy' , with a nod to the kydex style sheaths.

So pancake style rather than my usual wrap around and getting bored with brown/black colour, my hunting clothes pretty much all green so why not thinks I.....






I really like the results....
Still not finished yet , have to add belt loop which will probably also have torch holder built into it and have some different colour washers on the way, bit to much green maybe at mo, but like it enough might make matching belt pouches etc.
And as usual colour is patchy by design, almost black in places as didn't want it to bright.
Also the stone holder is it's own seperate sheath which bolts on, as will the belt loop as my usual style.
