Watching an Aussie Make a template for HIS! Classic Epic! Paper Leather sketch PART 1. I have a Leather kit we brought down with us from Boston Ma ( USA ). This is my first Craft video on the actual subject. I have a huge bag of scrap Leather to work with. Very excited to see this happen in full creation! Any further ( if any ) Sheath's fabricated by us will be credited to you! Watching, Like Subscribed and will share this on Face Book!
Thankyou for the kind words, I will be taking the series through the full making of a sheath from start to finish. The whole idea is to help people do it for themselves, I love to teach and this has given me a new avenue to do that.
Great video and instructions. I've been way over thinking the belt strap on the cross draw sheaths. I will be trying your methods this evening. That is the easiest looking method I've seen. That idea with the washer is cool too. Thank you.
Hey Alan I always have time ti answer. It depends on the design of the knife and also the hand size of the purchaser. Generally 1/8' (3.25mm) steel and 1/4" (6.5mm) on the bolsters is my start point so about 5/8'( 25.25mm) is about where I start at bolster end, that is thinned slightly in the handle shaping stage. The scales slightly under 1/2" (12mm) before shaping

@@DownunderFarmandForge This is perfect for someone like me. I'd have to watch a million video's and research many websites. Now I can just come here!
I will be putting together a playlist on the build to make it easier for people to check it out.
I'm learning so much from your videos! Thank you!
You are welcome 😉

Thanks Bill always encouraging when someone uses your methods. Mate I stick to KISS, saves me stuffing up too often
@@DownunderFarmandForge Yep. I can relate.
Very useful video. Just what I was looking for to build my own cross draw sheath. Thanks for sharing 👍👍👍
Happy to help out Bill, that is the aim of my channel to provide as much information as possible to help people along.
Very interesting! Thank you for sharing 🤗
Thank you for watching
Very interesting video, I have an antique knife that I need to make something for.
Watch the series, it will get you there.
Great videos!!! Learned HEAPS. Just a related question (if u have time to answer): what is the overall WIDTH of your knife scales plus knife steel??
