- Follow along as I craft a leather sheath for the custom hunting knife I made in a previous video! Throughout this tutorial, you'll see my full step by step process in the craft of leather working and the implementation of the many DIY skills I use on a daily basis. Watch to the end to see how these pocket style sheaths have an advantage over the traditional belt loop style!

Very interesting 😊. I c from watching these that every one has a SLIGHT diff way yet achieved the same goal
You’re an expert at your craft and its amazing to watch such a tedious craft being performed.
Also my favorite thing about your sheaths are the way you texture them on the pavement, such a small detail but adds a ton of character. Love it.
I appreciate it! Thanks for watching
Good job. Very functional and good craftsmanship.
Thank you!
Good looking sheath
Thank you!
That sheath is as good looking as the most expensive ones. You are a master leather craftsman. Great job. I wish l had one like that for my knife. Quality. You should start selling them. You would make some good money, even if it were a side project. I would certainly buy about 3. God has blessed you. Greetings from West Texas. Out here a man needs constant companions like a rifle and a good knife.
A master leather craftsman? That's a joke right?
Hey we should make a video as a knife maker challenge for us lesser known knifemakers ...what do u think.?
Great work. Keep going bro 😄😄
Thank you!
Nice video. Which model Ulticlip did you use for that one?
Thanks! Those are the slim 3.3 versions. They come with screws, but I like the look of the bronze so I buy them separate
This looks like the first sheath I ever attempted making. I can't believe you sell these! Sorry just being honest, but it dosent look like you have attention to detail and looks like you cut small corners. Just some constructive criticism
Yea I agree. Doesn't look finished. Although I'm picky. I rejected my first 2 sheaths I made. Still have them as a reminder.
@@RandyCooper85 I've done hundreds now and while I keep getting better, the gains are smaller than they were when I started. This too looks a lot like my first 2 or 3 pieces. My last piece looked like it was machine cut and I still do everything by hand. I'd use that sheath but only for myself, not as a product I would sell. What's sad is he did a lot of things right but cut corners all over that edge work.
Sheath looks hella dope, @behnkeforge!
Thank you!
@@behnkeforge Don't mention it. You're too kind already!
Good job, buddy...
