This is great. I need to make a cover for my new axe and wanted a different style than what I made before. Going to give this one a try!

Why no welt for the sharp edge to protect the stitching?

Good question. You could certainly add in a welt, but with an axe not being as sharp as a typical knife or sword, its not as crucial. Also, the blade wont be sliding against the stitches like it would if you were sliding a knife in and out of a sheath.

Thanks for the video. My winter projects for this year will be to replace my Kydex Sheaths with leather sheaths. Leather is so much more traditional. Where can I see how to do the stitching?

Nice and easy. The hole for the stud is upside down, but other than that, nice instructional.

Yep it should be flipped around the other way.

I see a mistake....if you keep your axe sharp, you should put a 6/8 oz. piece of leather in front of the cutting edge, curved to the bit of the axe. With that stitched or riveted in your "taco", your sharp edge rests against leather, not stitching or rivets to get dulled on or cut through...just my .02 cents...

You could definitely add a welt, and it would protect the stitches or the blade from the rivets. But this isn't the kind of cover where the blade is sliding against the stitches as you insert or remove it. So, not as crucial. But, I agree, a welt would be a good addition if you wanted to take it up a notch.
