Gave the cow hide another try

[Dtrap]

Well most of you guys know I'm a kydex guy but after seeing the gorgeous leather work form our fellow craftsman on here I just couldn't resist another go around. My new Sniper Bladeworks needed some new pants so I figured it was a perfect candidate. Tried some new stuff this time and am pretty pleased with how everything came out. This was my first time doing any tooling and it is defiantly not as easy as it seems. The fit is super nice and the retention is amazing. It slides in with a nice click very similar to kydex. It rides nice and tight to the body and is nice and slim. Let me know what you guys think.

I think it looks awesome. Pretty sleek and smooth.

I really dig the looks of that. Is that going to be a production item or just a one time deal?

 

[Dtrap]

Thanks guys. It is something I am willing to make for customers if someone is intrested. I really enjoyed the change of pace from the kydex and love the ability to be a bit more creative.

I would be a customer. Hopefully I can find a new folder worthy of your craftmanship.

 

[Dtrap]

Dang it. Guess that means your gonna have to spend some more money on a new folder now so I make you a sheath.

I got the bug and I am hoping to find something in the next week or so. Hopefully before I drop off the SYKO to you.

that looks amazing. I don't get why you left the pocket clip on though.

that looks amazing. I don't get why you left the pocket clip on though.

I left it on so I can still pocket carry it when I need to. Like with gym shorts or sweat pants. It's a pain to have to put it on and take it off just to change carry methods.

That looks great!! You are a real craftsman!!

I like the leather. I like the folder. I don't think I like that folder in leather. I'm not sure I would like that folder in kydex or any sheath for that matter.

Nice work

That's sweet. Has that Sheriff's basketweave look to it.

Thanks again for the kind words guys.
