Neck knife and sheath
Neck knife and sheath
Finished off this neck knife sheath today. Knife I forged from an old hayrake tine. Sheath is deer skin lined green in color. Leather is wicket and craig skirting. Back side I did a small basket weave, front is some simple stamps and a few swivel knife cuts. Strap is some braided lace I had around. Double loop lacing around the sheath.
This is for a knife swap I'm part of on another forum. Fun thing we all agree to certain parameters and then each participant makes a knife. Then everyone goes in a hat and is paired up. I send my knife to someone else and in return I get a knife from another participant. Fun to get someone elses work and a neat way to share what we do.
Enjoy folks stay safe out there wash those hands and make more leather stuff if you are stuck at home.

Re: Neck knife and sheath
That looks really good and/or different. Sheath is awesome. I would be proactive and make the strap able to pull away so someone cant strangle the lucky winner, in a fight, near the paper isle.

Very nice! I really like the fact you went with two different colors. That green really makes it look sweet!

Re: Neck knife and sheath
Well... I have tried working with leather... and I KNOW first hand, that it takes a real talent to work with leather and make it look as amazing as what you have done with that sheath!
Once again!.... second to NONE!

Re: Neck knife and sheath
Yes—awesome, beautiful work! How do you guys get that basket weave look, is that a stamp also?

Re: Neck knife and sheath
Yes it's a stamp. They come in different styles and sizes. Just takes a little practice but very doable to get a nice look!
Below is a link to a video about basketweave which can explain it far better than I can. I have no affiliation with weaver leather and if the link is not allowed my apologies and mods please remove!
