Title: nice little kit knife- plus snakeskin sheath
Post by: Bodork on December 27, 2008, 10:29:00 AM

I finished this little knife this week. The blade came with the etched bolsters already attached. Easy way to build a nice looking knife. I just added some fairly nice cocobolo and pins and the knife is complete. I really like the size and shape of this one.  Blade is about 2-3/4" and O.A.L. is a tad over 6".

 Here are a few pics of the sheath I made for this knife. My first atempt at adding snakeskin. My leatherworking skills(or lack thereof) are evident. the knife fits real snugly because I sewed everything together flat instead of making room for the knife. Luckly, the knife is pretty skinny!

You did a good job. The fit of the scales, finish on the wood, (it's a great piece of wood.)
