Its that attention to detail that makes your sheath's top class.

[@Brummiejohn200]

Thanks Robert, atb John.

What a truely relaxing way to spend half an hour. Stunning work. You made it look so easy, so have been buying collecting all the essential tools and glues to make a start. Being a bushcrafter novice I own a Bahco Laplander and will hopefully be able to carry it around with me after using John's video to make my own sheath. Wish me luck! ATB from Somerset

[@tadpoles10]

Thanks for sharing your skills along with a peep at the 'workbench & tools' John, always appreciate the time it takes to produce the finished item. Oh that reminds me, my shoes need a brush over ..

[@Brummiejohn200]

I like to see what tools people use, glad you enjoyed the video, atb John.

[@offgriddreaming5403]

I always enjoy your vids and learn from them.
Can I ask how long you have been leather crafting?
Thanks for sharing

[@Brummiejohn200]

Thanks for your comment, leatherwork was part of my job back in the 70's but I've only been doing this type of work for about 8 years, atb john.

[@avih7311]

Really nice- it would have been great to know what are the various liquids and pastes that you use - beautiful work!

[@Brummiejohn200]

Thank you for your nice comment, atb John.

[@elizabethchionchio8337]

I am new to leather working. Your work is beautiful! Thanks for sharing. If possible, I would like to know all the liquids you are using to finish the leather. For example, the stuff you put on the edges before and after burnishing and the liquids you use at the end for the final treatment of the sheath. The bees wax seems obvious, but the other treatments I'm not familiar with. Thank you.

[@Brummiejohn200]

Hi Elizabeth thanks for the nice comment the stuff that goes on the edges is Fiebings Edge Kote and the final treatment I use is first Neatsfoot oil and let it soak in fore a least 10 mins then Effax Leder-Balsam this is a wax and a final polish of Varnauba cream , hope this helps you,

[@user-lk4li7kt1r]

ПРИВЕТ, БРАВИССИМО!!!

[@jonnytentpeg]

Jesus christ I thought it was easy 👍

[@madcat1007]

Hey John Fab video. Could you let me know the dimensions of the dangler?

[@paulosoares333]

Parabéns!!!

[@andybrock100]

Beautiful work John, what adhesive did you use? the surplus cleaned off very easy! Was it resolene you applied to the inside of your sheath?

[@Brummiejohn200]

I use contact adhesive and any remaining glue can be removed very easily with a rubber the kind you use to rub out pencil, no I don’t use Resolene on the inside of any of my sheaths or pouches I use Fiebing’s Tan-Kote , thanks for the comment, atb john.

[@erikjoven2388]

What is that little tool with the blue handle that you trace over your thread holes with?
Is that just for creating a small recess for the thread to sit in to make it closer to flush with the leather? What would i search for if i was looking for that type of tool?

[@Brummiejohn200]

It’s one of these in a needle file handle

[@pablofangio4916]

hello how can this tell me what colors he uses for inks and what ointment he uses to make it shine

[@ArbitraryLifestyle]

What's the tool at 25:44 doing?

[@Brummiejohn200]

It’s a stitch groover it cuts a groove in the leather so the stitching can lie in it keeping it below the surface so it protects it from rubbing.

[@Ilmerish]

Hello! Thanks for video, but why only 360p?

[@Brummiejohn200]

You must have watched the video just after it was uploaded it takes time for CZcams to process the video properly it’s in 1080p now, hope you enjoyed the video anyway thanks for watching, atb John.

[@Ilmerish]

John Wellings yep, now its ok! Didnt know that before, sorry.

[@KillingerUSA]

What is the stuff you put on last?

[@Brummiejohn200]

That’s Fiebing’s Carnauba cream it’s a leather polish.

[@PSUQDPICHQIEIWC]

a leather punch on the arbor press?
this is where i look blankly at my collection of bent and dull wheel punches and feel like a complete idiot.

[@Brummiejohn200]

I’ve got a wheel punch never use it unless you buy a real good quality one they don’t last long, Invest in some good quality hand punches like Tandy ones they will last you years, thanks for the comment, atb John
