Here is something a quite bit different from what I usually work with.
And my first time with a bowie of any kind! Quite different from my
usual scandis.
Custom leather sheath for a Down Under Knifes "The Outback". All
vegetable-tanned leather and rock solid construction with double sewed
welts. Three suspension straps for horizontal carry or for connect to a
baldric. Retention strap with buckle and all brass hardware. The whole
scabbard is then treated with beeswax and lanolin to give it a water
proof and hard wearing surface that will get a nice patina over time.
I got free hands with this as long as it could be worn vertical,
horizontal, hooked up to a baldric and be strapped to different kinds of
gear.
About as different knife as possible to what I would prefer but still
really nice to make a custom sheath that was just what the customer
wanted.
Hope you like it! Criticism are of course welcome.
How much was this sheath
