Thought that would be handy for you, thinking now of how to display, but still be able to grab one for a weekend away.
I have about 9 other knives and my folders and leatherman as well, and waiting on three from Ebay, I've got it bad eh
Are you going to use leather strips to lace up any sheaths?
I will be eventually. I have 5m of 1.5mm brown lace and 10m of 2mm black lace at the momemt. Still waiting on some 2.5m black lace to be delivered.
Need to track down some leather strapping / thong around 3mm in decent lengths.
Will email my roo leather guy and see what he can get his hands on.
I have a plan for an open top pancake sheath somewhere on the pc I will use
Yeah sounds good and a good sheath enhances a knife,
Found this Damascus Chefs knife that broke first time I used it[Pakistan}
going to re-birth it in a clip point design
Just bought a heavy duty scalpel set and a burnishing set, will make cutting and moulding a lot easier
Any idea where I can track down patterns in pdf form at all?
No idea but will keep my eyes open
@HL now I get the Gil Hibben highlander bit lol BUDk sell
them for $50, OD maybe able to get it for you via gateway.com.
back to OD that moulding looks cool, now I can see why leather working tools go for so much on Ebay

OD these look ok pricey but would finish off a knife well

Another for OD take it this is a classy knife being Seki City

Cheers TD, I saw the GH blade on Budk 140 down to 40, top discount.
Couldn't sleep last night so I drew up my own pancake design for a folder and mini maglite combo sheath
now that's handy a 2 in 1
Got the idea from a sheath made by maglite originally but has a flap cover over the knife instead of open top.
Found a few other templates that I am keen to get as well and the guy I get my roo leather has some leath thong between 3 and 5mm in thickness, hardest part will be threading it
Mag-lite eh I liked to idea from that 110 buck and saw combo a while back.
Having and making these knives are useless unless they have a sheath.
There is a mob called richardtemps or similar that sell great sheaths at good prices .
I brought 4 sharpfinger ones for less than $30 landed ,the two on RHS
