Wyoming Wright Leather and Outdoors

I started as a maker because I was frustrated with a lack of quality goods available to average folks like me. I realized that sometimes the best option is to make it yourself. It's rewarding to create somethings useful, durable, and beautiful. In the end it's worth it to take the time to learn how to make it the "wright" way.

White River M1 Sheath Build // Laser Cut and Wax Dipped
A horizontal sheath build for the White River M1...an ergonomic masterpiece. I think this build turned out really. nice. A tight fitting, streamlined design. You can hardly tell you're wearing it.
To be honest, guys, I'm not sure which direction to go from here. More sheath builds? More general leather working projects? More outdoor adventures? I guess I'll just keep building the things I love and take you along for the ride.
I'm working on a website and a Patreon right now. I will update my video descriptions accordingly. I really appreciate the support. Not sure why anyone would want to follow my quirky videos and projects. I hope I can keep offering something you find valuable.

This is the quiet version of this sheath build. I have another version where I talk about the laser I used to cut out the leather and the kydex in this video. The laser is a game changer for leather working in general. The possibilities are endless and the efficiencies are greatly increased. I also talk about this interesting Kydex belt loop design. So please check out that video here: ruclips....

Join me for a short discussion about the relevance of these classic American made knives in a sensationalized, international knife market. Has Buck Knives cut corners to keep up with the demand for affordable pocket knives? Have they let go of some quality control on their classic knives in favor of their modern models?

My New Favorite Sharpening Tool: the Power Strop

Some of us need all the help we can get to keep our knives and tools sharp and at the ready. This "power strop" is actually one of the most useful sharpening tools I have and it wasn't that hard to build. It's a good way to practice some leather crafting basics, add some versatility to your shop, and keep your stuff sharp! I'll put a link below to the arbor adapter I used on this motor (not aff...

Give Your Axe the Handle It Deserves

Okay, so it's actually curled leaf mountain mahogany. But it is very similar to desert ironwood in both hardness and appearance. And it made a stunning handle for my old Cold Steel Trail Boss. This was once the best value companion axe but the newer model is not as good as the original. I broke the very nice hickory handle that came with the axe. Since it's a pretty lightweight axe head, I deci...

This may be the most important leather tool I own. There are just not many tools that can do as much as an arbor press. It can help you with so many different tasks in the leather shop. I have been really pleased with the Vevor 3 ton ratcheting arbor press. It took some work to make it just how I wanted it, but has quickly become an essential tool for my sheat building process…and it looks real...

Don’t Spend a Fortune on Leather Tools
Hey looks great! I'm wondering why you form the sheath by hand instead of using your vacuum press?
Good question. I considered it but because the vacuum press has a hard surface, I would have to put a piece of foam in the press so the other side of the sheath won’t be flat and will actually form to the knife. I’ll try it at some point but didn’t want to experiment on a sheath I was building for someone else.
Love the content!! Thank you for putting the parts with making the spacers from cork. I've always wanted to know how that was used and thank you for the informative video ! I love the music used personally and prefer having music and even dialogs in the videos. 😁
I'm thinking that over time the glue will break down and the scales will fall off, maybe not in your lifetime but eventually.
Yeah I wondered that too but I like the look and figure I can make some new scales if I ever need to
Those are really nice buck knives, the 110&112. I carried the buck 110 when i was in the army from 95-04, then when i was with homeland security. Never had any problems with a well made buck knife. I still have and use my buck 110 to this day.The bees wax will prevent the leather sheath from drawing moisture from the air. And the bees wax will keep the rosewood handles protected, it's a win win. Thank you for taking time to film, edit and post this video.
That turned out really nice, the lazer cutter seems to come in handy for leather sheath making. I would say do what you love to do, film, edit and post it and people will watch what they want to. Thank you for taking time to build, film, edit and post this video. What's the learning curve on the Lazer?
Thank you sir. Yeah the laser cutter is really nice to have. I actually think there is no way to get a cleaner stitch. And you can fit the sheaths almost perfectly to the knife so it makes the designs very light and efficient. I definitely had to work the kinks out with the laser, but the hardest thing for me was learning to design in adobe illustrator. Thanks for the comment! Happy Thanksgiving!
@wyomingwright well that good to know, about the laser cutter. Thank you. Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family too!
Awesome work,great video
Thank you!
That's so old school, thumb studs are for lazy people, all lock back knives will work that way, in a tactical situation always have it ready beforehand...
Turned out great! Yes, more leather working/sheath videos please. I'm an amateur leathersmith, love your work. Wyoming Wright AMSR hour. Lol
Man, thanks for reading my video description and leaving a comment. You’re a 1 percenter. Much appreciated!
@wyomingwright yes sir!
Love the leather sheath! Is that your work? Are they available to purchase?
Yes I’m working on getting a website up this month. I will update my YT channel with a link
You should absolutely put in for a warranty repair or exchange for your knives. I collect case knives and they have a horrible reputation over the last several years for putting out poor craftsmanship. Then you send it back it takes 6 weeks for them to fix it If they even get it right. It's so bad with most manufacturers you need to go buy your knives in person because you can't even order them online or they will show up messed up and then it takes months for the turnaround. Don't let them get away with it. Do a warranty RMA on your products and keep them accountable. Make a video on the knives that they send back!!!
My finger when I clean dust off it:
@edmundgonzalez8731 When I was a junior/high school kid (late 70s), most boys had one on their belts. There could be 5 or 6 in any given class room. Funny, nobody ever got stabbed... Response) Exactly, now there are no knives in school and many other places and yet violent crime is high. They just want to control and disarm good people. The real crime is the government not abiding to the Constitution.
The "Biker Flip" has been used for years before thumb studs and thumb holes. I got a Kwik Stud and now I want a Buck 110 so I have a place to put it. lol
I think the design is solid. Just need to correct the construction flaws
Perfect
Great work, Sir!
awesome work. great stitching and forming of that sheath!
Why do you go against the edge on the strop?
You always want to pull the blade along the strop. The idea is to pull out any burs on the edge and put a bit of a polish on it. Pushing the cutting edge across the strop might actually roll your edge more. Definitely don’t want to put your edge into the power strop as it would likely catch the blade and throw it back towards you. You always want the cutting edge facing away from you with the top of the stropping wheel rotating away from you.
@wyomingwright I see. I thought it looked like the edge was going against the strop, but that's just hard to see in a video. Do you have suggestions for a cheap belt grinder I can use for a leather belt strop? I'm finding my super high grit stones are simply not getting my edges perfect.
I have two Buck knives that seem to be pretty much unheard of. One is a folding model like to 110 model, except mine has three inter-changeable blades (the standard blade, a skinning blade, and a bone saw blade). The other knife is a Buck Caribou Skinner. Both are great knives.
That’s awesome!
Double stich -- perfection leather work👍
Thanks! I do like the looks of the double stitch
Very helpful. Thank you.
Dang laser machine is cheating, how much did that thing set you back, wowee
Gorgeous knife I hope to add to my collection some day. I use a Victorinox Pioneer around the house for most of the jobs you showed, except for opening boxes / pet food bags. I use the reamer for that to spare the cutting edge.
What a great video and knife sheath thanks
Thanks!
I like how you think outside of the box with the belt loop.
Absolutely gorgeous
I like it. Definitely on my project list. Thanks for sharing all the details.
The sheaths are beautiful
Thank You!
Thanks. I think you did a great job. I subscribed.
I learned something today.
Great build. These two videos are perfect.
Do you smack your knees a lot when sitting at that?
Nope
I have my great-grandfather’s Buck 110 from the 80s. It is on its third blade. Has field dressed over 100 deer over all those years. It is always in my jeans pocket everywhere I go. A little bulky, a little heavy, but it holds so much sentimental value that I’ll carry it forever
You did an amazing job on your sheath. But I like carrying the Buck 110 the normal way.
I used to have all used Buck knives but recently I have purchased 2 brand new ones and they're freaking amazing.
Your video convinced me to daily carry this knife. Thank you sir.
Just about the COOLEST music for any knife making video.
Do you pre-treat the leather before vacuum moulding? Years ago I made beautiful breast and back plate of wax-boiled leather, had to form them y hand under running water.
I fell in love with the 110 and use it at work daily, i see the passion that you have for the 110 and shows in craftsmanship making the sheaths! I would love to support your business and purchase one from you, will look out for your next batch to have and American made knife and sheath, Thank you 🙏 🤜🤛
"Toggle Clamps" FYI
Would you hire me to help you crank out production? Do you have enough demand? Say yes I'll be out instantly
Good work, my process overall is similar but actually completely different so it's funny to see how we've created our own steps. I definitely see some ways you can streamline production and probably cut assembly after forming down to 1 hour or less
Buck knives 4 eva !!
I need one how do I order one
Send me an email
Hmm leather moulding, ehh. Something I'd never appreciated before, somehow assumed it just existed. Now I know better. Before I disappear down the leather rabbit hole, is the leather a special type/need to be wet? Too late, I'm slipping...down I go. How long is a vacuum treatment?? Thanks for posting.
Moistened veg tan leather molds the best. I leave it in the vacuum for an hour
Absolutely great video. I wish I had seen this before I started my knife sheath. Lots of great tips. Do you mind if I mention you and your video when I release the one I'm doing?
I don’t mind at all. Thanks for the comment and best of luck!
Well done! Beautiful sheath, indeed.
Very Nice custom!. My 112 custom was oak and brass also. But mine was much lighter than yours. They did such a great job i got a 110 custom in blue wood S30V and have about 3 other builds id like to do. Elk. Ironwood. And Buffalo.
I’d like to try a few more as well. The 113 in s30v and elk would be my next choice
@wyomingwright oh yah thats a good one!!
Next time put the board in the freezer before cutting . . . .
😳 Dude! That’s brilliant! Have you tried that?
@@wyomingwright Friend made fishing lures . . . 🙂
Thanks for the video and information.
Very nice
