I got the leather sheath I've been working on to the point I
could fit the knife inside. It has to
be a tight fit for this design to keep it from sliding out. It is too tight on the first try. It is not easily inserted. It needs a bit of force to get it in to the
point it needs to be. That's not gonna
work with this design very well. I
think you need to be able to slide it in with one hand. Making it able to do that makes it too
loose. Also when I forced down to check
the fit a few times, I eventually pushed it through the leather.
That sharp point and narrow handle isn't
working so well as another I did of this design. I will have to line t with Kydex to prevent cutting of the
leather. Haven't used that before so
will be in some new territory. I don't
know when he needs his knife back, so I will update him and see if he wants me
to continue. Could take another couple
weeks.
I need to do some head scratching on this one.
Happy Trails
