Highly anticipated! I want to share a series that has been kicking around in my head for quite some time. You can easily make your own beautiful sheath for your personal Slöjd knife just with simple tools! Last year I´ve made several batches of individual Slöjd knives using Mora 106 blades and others. The handle design is very specifically optimized to give you full palm support while nesting comfortably in your hand when doing reverse cuts. I called it "DogLeg", based on antique pocket knife patterns.
Knife:
Part 1: Carving the handle
Part 2: Fitting the Blade
Part 3: Finishing the Handle
Part 4: Glueing up the Knife
Sheath:
Part 1: Fitting the Sheath Liner
Part 2: Carving the Sheath
Part 3: Decoration and ChipCarving
Entirely shot on manual lenses for the finest contrast and sharpness! This will be a continuing series, so make sure to stay tuned and support the channel with your likes and shares!

You did a great job brother.
To share experience i like most!
Followed from start to finish Max. I would never have had the balls to take on such a task without your help. My sheath has ended up a little lose but overall I am so pleased with it. As always thank you so much my friend

Always happy to hear that! Share it if you think it was helpful. Producing the series of 8 videos took about 100 hours. I'd love to see it reach more people. Cheers
Fabulous series!! Gave me more than a couple of pointers to improve my own leather work, knife making and sheath making projects. Thanks much!
This is beautiful
Great job...

This series is absolutely fabulous. Thank you for taking the time to do this! Gorgeous work :)
I just finished my first knife handle, a Mora Frosts 102 I think. This series was so inspiring to try something completely new and much more unique and technical than what I did. Thanks so much for putting the time into showing us your talents.
Ooooh! Missed this! This was the bit I’ve been waiting for! (Settles down with glass of wine....😋)

Yup... This part took me about 15h all together... 2h of video footage, 3h of proxy generating, 4h editing, 6h exporting, 2h uploading, two crashes, thumbnail producing, and shooting pics... In short... I need a faster laptop... Lol! Thanks a bunch!
Great tutorial. I tried this sheathe technique this weekend and it mostly worked - I just need to work on my measurements 😂. Another tip is to dye the leather before working with it if you want to dye it.

@@woodsmansfinest3814 Thanks for the tip - re. dying - why don't you recommend on doing that first? I have not tried it yet, so any insight is helpful! When I dyed it afterwards, the dye didn't take well in the burnished area that connects with the wood. It looks ok for what I was doing, but not sure how I could get a consistent dye without dying it first?

Hey Max! Wonderful tutorial. Thanks. What is the other name you give to the sheath? Beginning with L. Is it a German, Saami or Japanese Word? Or are my ears just not working properly?! I am inspired to have a go myself now.
