That's a cool looking knife-dangerous at both ends. Like the sheath, too. :)

ok here are the final pics i used what i had on hand to make this. the back of the sheath is made out of conveyor belt and i hand riveted the leather straps which came off of a Scottish claymore scabbard with roofing nails
