Cool knife! What kind of leather is your sheath made out of? Cool how you can see all the distress marks in it.

Thanks Guys. It is just tooling leather that has been press fitted to the knife while wet. My deep dark shop secret (tee hee hope no one is listening)is kiwi shoe polish.   :biglaugh:  I ain't spreadin no BS! C-Ya Bob

Does the "secret" Kiwi Shoe polish give it the distressed look?

Hey JMR I think the wetting and drying ditress it but the kiwi enhances it. Not to brag but have had a lot comments here from freinds that like the look too!
