Then & Now | A Sheath Making Journey
🔪 Have you ever wanted to make your own knife sheath, but didn’t know where to start or how to make your own template? Then discover how to make a knife sheath for almost any knife you own. A one of a kind knife sheath that showcases fine craftsmanship and technique.
In this course, you’ll discover:
✅ How to make your own pattern for almost any knife shape, with a simple hack using graph paper and card.
✅ How to make a quick and cheap foam prototype to prove your design before cutting into any quality leather.
✅ How to create a turned edge for clean edges that showcase your craftsmanship. No burnishing, edge paint or bindings needed. You don’t even need any sheath making experience, you can make them for outdoor knives, hunting knives or even your kitchen knives at home. Here I reveal all my tips and tricks for creating and you won’t even need a skiving knife!
✅ How to recess your stitching in a grove to protect the thread. But without compromising on those beautiful angled stitches, combining the best attributes of western and European style leatherwork.
✅ How to line and wrap your snap fasteners for a neater, more completed look, creating an invisible join.
🛠️👉 To make this project, you’ll need 0.5mm skins and 2mm vegetable tanned leather if you want a turned edge. Or 2.5mm vegetable tanned leather if you want a simpler, easier to make sheath with burnished edges.
