Making a leather knife sheath tutorial

[@grayadventures5885]

All the instructors are great, but that first instructor with Sam in the pool is incredible! I’ve watched this twice now. Once a few weeks ago and again today are doing AIDA 1. I am hooked. Can’t wait for AIDA 2!! 🧜🏼‍♂️

[@brandonminer749]

...And three hours later, I have a beatiful sheath for my work knife... Thank you! I'd never done this before; 1st leather project!

Nathan Hare damn you right man

[@bazlur-Vancouver]

You made many nice tools. They are expensive, but It takes a long time to make any good tool. First I made a knife sheath with an awl and Olfa cutter and simile wax thread from Tandy shop. when I entered 20 years ago in Tandy shop and I hooked up doing the leather craft, mostly for my own use. I like the knife making and due to lack of working facilities could not do, but make knife handles sometimes. Now I do fine woodcrafts( small items) and make some money and keep busy myself. You have nice videos. Just watching one by one. People learn whole life from others experiences. KZbin helps a lot and people don't need to special schools to learn craft works.

[@Killerclown667]

Just found your channel. 👍. I’ve completed making my first knife and will be gifting it to my Grandson. I’m going to use your video to help me make the sheath. Great upload, thank you. 👍👍👍

[@24934637]

For me, THIS whole thing isn't what I signed up for LOL. I got into knifemaking because I REALLY enjoy metal working, the whole feel of steel and the processes involved in making it from a raw material into a piece of functional art. I don't have the same passion for leather, but it IS without ANY doubt part of the whole 'skillset' needed. No one wants a knife without a sheath (Except kitchen knives), so it's something that I'm going to HAVE to learn, and learn to love. Excellent vid, thank You!

[@24934637]

@@gustingdis To be fair, I prefer making a sheath from leather instead of Kydex!

Thank you for making this video I followed your instructions to make my first knife sheath and was happy with the results

[@andrewmundenandcadfellmast4624]

All true mate. I first started making timber pens 15 years ago, as a hobby. Made a bullet pen out of a couple of used 7.62 shells for myself and a few mates from work wanted one. My wife suggested I should star selling them, which I did, as a bit of a laugh, but I thought it would never be a long term thing. At last count, I think weve made about 20 thousand of the. Still amazes me!

[@TheKateniz]

What firms the sheath around thr handle vs the blade? Is it just that snug of a fit that it naturally takes the shape or must you wet, mold it around the knife, and let dry to get that fit?

[@b2bogster]

Thank you!!! You are a great teacher. I needed a sheath for a knife I made and your video was great!.

Thank you also for sharing your knowledge and passing along your skill set to others, very inspirational to watch.

Great Stuff! So far when I have made that style of sheath I have included a 'tail' to form the belt loop; but I can see that having a separate piece for the belt loop makes the sheath easier to cut out, and probably saves on leather. I'll try your style for my next sheath. Thanks

I wish I had a shop to make my own tools like that. I don't have the tools to make my own tools hahaha. I love that round knife you're using. I assume you made that yourself. Very nice. I would love some hand forged knives for my leather work. I just don't want to pay the hand forged knife price. Again... I wish I had the means to make my own like that. I know making knives is a whole other sport then making leather. Or even that beveler that you made from a piston. Making a quality knife takes some serious skill and in most cases, proper tools. Or at least a forge. Ppl have been making knives with fire and a hammer for centuries. But with today's steel, you really do need a forge to heat your steel
