Some recent leather work.
« on: October 11, 2013, 07:19:26 am »
Ayup all,

I dont really venture out of the bows section but thought I would post some of the other things i do to while away the time. Not sure if this is the right part but feel free to move or remove it mods. Especially when the elbow plays up and the heavy tools stuff is out of bounds.

Few bits of leather work I have finished over the pas few weeks.

New sheath for a blade I handled recently






Leather sheath made for a friends old bowie from the 70`s

Poor old battered clothes


New shiney ones.




Will post more if its something people like to see.

Thanks for lookin

Nice work!
Really like the first one,personally i have problems with the button type sheats...i tend to get caught up in twigs or my clothes or something like that and open them on accident. But top shelf stuff regardless.

Looks like solid work, no question. Do you hand stitch or use a machine?

Thanks. All hand stitched. Sometimes for the thicker welts I use a pillar drill then stitch.

Nice looking stuff! That Bowie sure looks different with a new pair of pants! Show us more. I don't think anyone gets tired of eye candy.
