Would like to post a build along

<< < (2/6) > >>

RGK:
I want this sheath to have a deep rich color but also wanted to see some of the tan through the die so I diluted the stain with alcohol.

 

Once thoroughly saturated, I let it sit for a few hours to dry.

 

To waterproof the leather and give it a nice sheen, I used mink oil and then warmed the sheath of the burner of the stove to make it soak in.

 

The knife and sheath are done.
