DON'T FORGET THE THUMBS UP!! - Zábava
Sometimes you can only learn and get better is by over coming your mistakes. Thanks for showing that.
Its really important for the learning process.
You are obviously a leather artisan and holding back many things by showing us this simple, so you say, method of making a sheath! Wish I could have seen this 20 years ago when I might have picked up the trade or at least tried. Attention to detail has always been my thing during my adult life. I can only imagine what you could show of your skills if you really wanted to. Great video, I hope it peaks some people's interest into what they could do and what they could create.
Thank you! I have done a couple fancy ones here and there.
Out of all the axe sheath videos I've watched, you sir have been more informative. On top of making the best looking sheaths as well. Thank you
Thank you!
I know you say “anyone” can do this. But, when an experienced person makes a video like this, the reality is, most cannot, and will not do this. Point being, this is a pro tip, nicely done video. I can’t afford to take the time or learning to do this. So, I super appreciate your work!
Well, I'm glad you enjoyed it!
...."results may vary". Hahaha. But you gota start somewhere.
I counted, and there are 4,962 tips and tricks in this video. That green you make is excellent, all other greens pale in comparison.
Appreciate you! My green is an actual secret formula I came up with because I couldn't buy the shade I wanted . So I mix my own. Love it!
I saw that mistake when you were tracing the head and talking about the welt. I cringed, but knew you'd adjust somewhere along the way. Glad it worked out and they look fantastic as always.
Thanks
You, sir, are a master craftsman.
Thank you!
Always lookin out for us basic folks…thanks buddy👍🏻
Thanks Doug!
Anybody that thinks they can't do this or don't have the time is wrong. Do it little by little. It may take a day or a month. I bought a bag of 8 to 9 oz. veg leather scrapes at a hobbie store. Scrapes were the perfect size for axe sheaths. I marked the stitch holes with a fork. Used a tiny drill bit and drilled holes for stitching. I double saddle stitched mine together, I hate rivets. Burnished it with bees wax. After it was finished I rubbed it down with homemade leather conditioner. It's coconut oil and beeswax mixture. Thanks for the video.
You are correct, it just takes time and folks can absolutely do this
Great work my friend. Love what you do. I am a custom knife maker and appreciate what goes into the process. ❤️🌲❤️🌲❤️🌲
Thank you! That's actually how I got started with leather, I was making knives. Haha
Cereal boxes work well for patterns too!
Absolutely!
Nice video. Good looking sheaths. Thanks.
Thanks!
Thank you.
My pleasure
Wow. This was a very detailed video. I really learned a lot watching this video.
Thank you for your time and advice!
Glad it was helpful!
I have used both alcohol based dyes and water based dye successfully. I think a lot of it is your finish. I have 10 year old pieces that were done with water based dye. There just as bright as the day I made them. I’ve used blue green pink purple all water based with excellent results. Used to use a dabber to apply but use a airbrush now with better coverage and no streaks. I stitch all my work and use rivets occasionally only on stress points. Everyone has there own way. Peace
Yes. Everyone has there own way. This video was intended to show folks how an easy sheath can be made. I also stitch most of my work. As far as the dyes go, I gave not had good luck with the water base. The oil works best for me. No wrong way to do any of this.
@@KillingerUSA I agree people wanted color in there leather so I had to learn how to use them to get best results. Normally I use black and browns. But some people prefer colors.
@@williamklein6649 I know what you mean.
Beautiful sheaths. Good job!
Thanks!
Outstanding!
Thanks Jeff
Beautiful craftsmanship and vid! Lots of cool tips in there, cheers!👍👍
Thanks Kurt!
3:29 the ghost of Killinger’s shop swings open the door 👻
Haha!
I have watched dozens of videos on sheath marking.. knives, axes.. and have made several. Each one.. different mistakes…
This is by far the best tutorial I’ve seen..and thank you so much for adding all the material and tools used. It makes it easy to get the exact same ones we are watching you use. Many times on Amazon there are dozens of the same product. And you end end getting something a little different..,like rivets and buttons!
I’ve struggled with getting my stitching lines even and straight, so I’m going to try some riveting! Thanks again!
Thank you so much! Comment like this make the work that went into this video worth it! Some day I'll do a stitching video.
Great video! So much info packed in there. I learn something new every time I watch one of your leather vids. Thanks
Thanks Kevin!
I've been adding D rings and molle straps to my sheaths. Attachment points are a good thing.
Aggre
Nice leather work as always Chris. You make it look easy!
Thanks Mike!
Outstanding video and tutorial, Chris. Very nice looking sheaths for some great axes. I really enjoyed this video. Thanks for posting it.
Thanks Dale!
Love your leather work. Very informative. Nice, well done.
Thank you!
Great video with lots of helpful tips! Excellent craftsmanship.
Thank you
You are a real craftsman great work
Thank you!
great video, i like how you talked about the problem you ran into because that happens to me once and a while and its pretty frustrating. the sheaths look awesome
Thanks buddy! It's very important to point out because it happens to all of us. You just have to work throu it. I'm happy with how they turned out.
Those are some nice sheaths! Thanks for the video!
Thanks Jeff!
Has me wanting to get some veg tanned leather and make some simple sheathes for a cheap hatchet. I also appreciate showing how things can go wrong and the problem solving to fix it and keep going. Good video.
Thank you!
That was very well explained and super approachable. Thanks for the great tips! Beautiful sheaths too
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it!
Great tutorial! Thank you for sharing. This may be the push I need to start my own leatherwork!
Go for it! It's a lot of fun! Very rewarding!
I just went through this content, such a pleasant surprise. I went to your old 4 part set of sheath making videos way back because they were the best around (after looking at many others) about 2 years ago. But you came across like you were not into it, like it was a boring job you had to do. Like I would be making video content, but i am not. I kept going back to them though, over and over again many times because the knowledge i needed to know was there. I learnt a lot and have made many sheaths now, After making 3, i did some without going back to your content on the old videos, so thank you for your sound knowledge much appreciated. As you are with your content and videos, i am getting better at making sheaths, but I had not made one for a month or so and i forgot something. Came across this video WOW, so good it's a big change in attitude, like the profesional you are, thanks again for more good learning, its like you want to do it 100%.
Many folks will learn from this content if they persevere and keep going back over the videos if they need too, like i did and still do for much of my axe learning. No shame in that folks as long as your are learning.
I apologize if my previous videos seemed like I wasn't into what I was doing. I assure you I was or I wouldn't have done it. Leather work is my passion not my job. I enjoy it very much. I'm glad you where able to learn from them! That makes me very happy to know I helped! I'll work on my camera presentation a little so I don't come off like I don't want to be here lol
@@KillingerUSA LOL the improvement with your new videos from when i last got into them all, sometime back, is remarkable. Shows what you can achieve with commitment, something i hope to achieve with my leather work over time, again thanks for your help.
Brilliant, and thank you!
Your welcome
"Dividers": are what they are called. They make uniform/equidistant spacing a snap! Rivet sets and bucking bars should be chrome faced and polished to a mirror finish... That way the "upset" head and "buck" side will look mirror smooth as well. I don't know jack about leather work.
Thanks for your input
Great Video! Thank you.
My pleasure
안되는걸알지만 만들어본다.
Beautiful work and great tutorial.
Thank you
New subscriber Chris. Love your channel. I've always wanted to make my own sheaths, and this was a really great tutorial that should get me to try it. I got a lot of new goodies from my recent visit to Colonial Homestead, so I've got a lot of sheaths to make!
Welcome to the channel! Appreciate it! Enjoy your new hobby! Haha! Its fun!
Very cool of u u to demonstrate for us thank u so much!
Thank you!
@@KillingerUSA ur very welcome sir!
Thank you for the video. Very nice work and presentation (honest too). I'm about to rework two old axe heads (that I was given & not of any real value) for cutting kindling. And this style of sheath looks very nice on the head. Got a question on your use of a mallet. It seams that you prefer it to say a ball peen or a brass hammer. Do you find that it gives you more control? Keep up the good videos! Cheers.
All ball peen would mushroom the ends of the tools. Barss would work I just dont have one handy. Thank you for watching! Appreciate it!
Question, are the #9 rivets used specifically for the thickness of the leather you used? Or will they work for thinners leathers as well?
They can work for thinner leather as well.
@@KillingerUSA thank you my friend!
Great video. I am curious where you got the razor knife that you used to cut out the leather. It is nice.
It was a guy on Instagram but I can't think of his name at the moment. I will look and see if I can find that information.
@@KillingerUSA I truly appreciate that
Nice work! I've looked into starting leather work. My grandfather used to have a good set of Tandy tools, but those are long gone. If you don't mind, what are the dimensions of your workshop? Thanks
Workshop is a 12x24 shed. Leatherwork is very rewarding! You will enjoy it!
@KillingerUSA Man, that's encouraging and exactly the size I was looking to build. Someday soon, I'll start on the leather.
You made a digression regarding the sheaths as the 4 axe heads have different splays and kept the video anyway. Cheers
What?
Tougher, thicker leather is better for sheaths, IMO.
I would aggre
Great job and thanks for the tutorial.
BTW, what kind of animal has that long a hide?
Thanks! This hide is from a cow.
@@KillingerUSA wow. Big cow.
What utility knife is that? Classy 😊

Got it from this feller on Instagram
If you're making patterns to keep, cut then out of a gallon plastic kmilk jug.
Thanks for the tip
Why the music ????
Why not?
But I don't have any leather... Or an axe... 🤣
Good entertainment then!
@@KillingerUSA - Yeah, I watch loads of things I'll never do/not capable of doing, I'm just poking a little fun at the whole "anyone can do it" thing. :)
