Good job George. Your right on templates. I started out clamping three boards over edges but had the two extra noses on bottom corners. I have made three templates and that is the cat's meow. Keep going forward. Rog

[@2ndchancegeorge]

Yep. I need to make em. It makes the difference for sure. Be safe my friend

[@timberwolf3007]

👍Once again you've done a great job, George! Those box sheaths are my preferred way of carrying my folding knives. I've made one for each folder I carry.

[@2ndchancegeorge]

Yep, working through my campers. Thinking a big for each size and going from there...lol. be safe my friend

[@larrykoroush6995]

I have about a dozen swiss army knives, but I prefer the old camper and scout knives. It's nice that someone else likes to get them and fixed em up

[@2ndchancegeorge]

Yes sur, love them old campers, thankyou for watching and commenting always appreciated

Nice work, george. Turned out good. I recently made my first wet molded belt sheath for a buck 110 auto. First time stamping and wet molding nice veg tan leather. I made a custom mold out of some scrap wood, it turned out nice. I need to get a custom makers mark stamp made next. I also made a pocket slip for a SAK out of the same leather. Would love to hear what you think of the projects. They're on my channel if you are interested. Have a good day, cheers.

[@2ndchancegeorge]

Nice, I will definitely check them out. Thankyou and you be safe

[@DonaldPolson-b4q]

Great job, I love the way your stain turns out on your sheath

[@marybethfields1166]

George I am so jealous I love that leather cutting knife. Well my friend loved the sheath. Huggles to you and Merry.

[@2ndchancegeorge]

Yep, it's a nice knife but I think ita designed for lighter work. The tip bloke easy. I'll fix but was a little dissapointed...lol. glad your friend like it. Be safe as always

[@marybethfields1166]

@@2ndchancegeorge sorry that happened to the knife. I want one for my collection.

[@2ndchancegeorge]

@marybethfields1166 Amazon about 20 bucks with egde trimmer. DIUDUS is brand....

Thankyou my friend

[@ColoradoBilly5]

Very nice sheath brother! Merry looks like she had a rough Friday night 😮. Great job. Carry On Sir….

[@2ndchancegeorge]

Lol tis the season..she sleeps all day. Becsafe my friend

[@mikebohling2280]

I like this style of sheath. Hmmm I learned something again lol well done George !

[@2ndchancegeorge]

Good that was the whole point of making it was to show you how...kinda..lol. be safe my friend

[@mikebohling2280]

@2ndchancegeorge the slip you made for the bow trapper has held up amazingly well . I wasn't your favorite slip , but it certainly stood the test of time lolol thanks George !

[@2ndchancegeorge]

@mikebohling2280 lol..good to hear. Be safe my friend

[@charlesclaridy8646]

Nice Sheath George. "Til next time; All the best to you and yours..

[@2ndchancegeorge]

Thankyou sir, back at you

[@Sheepdogtraveling]

With the template. I think if you made one that is rounded. You won't have the problem with the creasing. Just a thought.

[@2ndchancegeorge]

Yep. I want to figure out a template for common sizes of campers etc. The make some. Just not sure yet how I want the template...lol. be safe my friend

[@terrell48]

You may have just got a knife that had a defect in the steel causing it to break but you have the skill to put a new point on that blade

[@2ndchancegeorge]

Yep. Going to, also thinking of modfing an opinel #9 to a Sheepsfoot.....hmmmm. might work

My advice is, try using more of the knife's edge instead of working just the tip. Start the cut from the outside edge toward the interior. I would drill a small hole where I wanted the slice to end. Ulu shaped leather knives are often used in other videos I have seen. Thanks for the longer video, I enjoy the detailed explanations of dying and leather work. Merry looked a bit tired, they usually lie around 16 hrs. in my house, I don't get 8 hrs. straight!

[@2ndchancegeorge]

Yep. You right. Be safe

[@ghyselenserge1268]

Très bonne video pour le couteau à mon idée ça doit être un couteau à parer mais pas couper le cuir

[@2ndchancegeorge]

Lol..you maybe right. Thanks for watching always appreciated

[@Orlosthedruid]

so far, my best cutting blade for leather has been just a cheap razor blade box cutter. I keep stropping the blade and it keeps getting sharp.

[@2ndchancegeorge]

Lol. Alot of people use em. Maybe I should. Be safe my friend...ih thinking modfing a opinal #9 to a sheeos foot and using that....lol

@@2ndchancegeorge Just bought a Rodale's book on pruning for $1 and on the title page is a #8 opinal pruning knife! Working mans knife for sure.

True story

[@David-z7j8e]

my friend told me the tooth pick in boy scot knife is valued the mosted of knife

[@2ndchancegeorge]

I assume you mean the awl. It's very handy fir alot of things. Thanks for watching always appreciated

[@davidjensen4796]

Hey George don't want to talk out a place but you would have been better off with a good utility knife and a pack of blades I've got one and done exactly the same thing and I had to sharpen to get it to the better and harder Steel and it's still not that great get yourself a good utility knife and a good pack of blades anyway thumbs up keep it going love the content

[@2ndchancegeorge]

Yep, I am thinking of that. I also thought to mod an opinel #9 to a sheepsfoot. ....

[@terrell48]

Wet your leather more George so it will stretch and avoid the pleat

[@2ndchancegeorge]

Yep you right. I also want to make a due fir this size. It will help aswell. Always my friend be safe

[@RobertThomas-k3l]

Interested in a trade for a sheath? Looks good!

[@2ndchancegeorge]

Lol..what you got...lol. email. It's in description. Not really what I do but let's talk. Appreciate the support as always be safe

[@Sheepdogtraveling]

Wouldn't a sheep's foot blade cut leather? I believe that's what it's for.

[@2ndchancegeorge]

Lol..yep. I was talking with a friend and she suggested I do an Opinel mod to Sheepsfoot. Hmmmmm. Gonna have to look at that. Be safe sir
