Thumbs up Very nice

Your method for making the sheath is the same method used by the guy my Grandpa got to make the sheath for my Uncle's BSA knife sheath. He used elk skin but I think he made it the same way. That sheath is still in use on that same knife; my Uncle's BSA knife is now my hunting knife. A well made knife and sheath should last a lifetime and then some and that one looks like it will last a good long time. Very nice set.
