Opinel No. 12 Folding Saw: The Perfect Diy Leather Sheath

[@cjgauthier9246]

I went "on the cheap" with my work platform by going to a local countertop place and got some sink cutouts. Worked well, maybe you could try that too, they are usually free.

[@2ndchancegeorge]

Whoa...nice. maybe that'll work. The real problem is the shed moves too....lol. thanks for the tip appriciated. Be safe out there

[@michaelcosta879]

Turned out great George! Thank you for all your research it makes it easy for me to watch your videos and create a project. To date, I have made three Opinel knife sheaths, two SAK pouches, covered two hobby knives with leather, a knife slip for my 84mm Tinker small, and now I am making a sheath for Mr Opinel saw. Thanks for all the help.

[@2ndchancegeorge]

[@tonynapoli5549]

Yes George looking good , getting better that’s for sure, just a thought how about waxing the sheath ! Take care

[@2ndchancegeorge]

Huh..I have not. Waterproof?

[@wiseraven2000]

Good morning I have a question have you ever tried a saddle stitch I found that works the best on stitching for sheaths and it's really easy to get a straight stitch because you can see the row as you're doing it if you don't know the saddle stitch there's tons of KZbin videos on how to do

[@2ndchancegeorge]

Yep been watching them...lol. thanks for watching

[@jamesmcgee2447]

👍🏻

[@2ndchancegeorge]

Thanks 😊 apprciate you always stopping by.

[@The-Armed-Pacifist]

Nice job, George. Stitching is always a real challenge. I see lots of commercially made belts, etc. With edges that are not burnished. Terrible.

[@2ndchancegeorge]

Yep, burnishing makes a big difference. Be safe

[@The-Armed-Pacifist]

@@2ndchancegeorge It takes a little longer, but the result is more durable and appealing to the eye.

[@The-Armed-Pacifist]

By the way, Harbor Freight sells an anvil that gets pretty good reviews on line. Check it out.
