Schrade sheath
Posted: Sun Jul 24, 2022 1:14 am
I made this leather sheath for a coworker (the same one that I made the Leatherman sheath for a few weeks back).
This time I used some much better leather.
I also put an edge on the knife for him - it was so dull that I couldn't tell the edge from the spine. I am not sure of the model of this knife. It only says "Schrade USA" on the tang, and "Hunting" on the shield. When I first saw it I thought of a Sharpfinger, but the blade curves the wrong way. I only barely dabble in Leatherworking. I made many of my tools myself. Here are the most common ones, all laid out on my cutting mat (yes, on a clipboard. I don't have a dedicated place to do leather work). The rusted screwdriver is a fairly good edger, and the forks are my chisels. All of the tools work fairly well except for the drill-mounted slicker. It works better as a rougher instead. I need to buy a real slicker, I guess.
