I wish you made these beautiful handled Moras and sheaths for folks like myself to purchase, it's just lovely!

Two beers in, clicked on this vid, best intro ever.

Just tuned in to your channel and I gotta say - this is what KZread is all about! Your videos are made with a passion for the craft and are yet so down to earth and peaceful without bein overly ecstatic like many others. So I suppose I should really say good job and keep it up!

Good job Mate ! I have to get a stitching pony; or make one.. After wet forming and drying - I use some melted beeswax & netsfoot oil. Warm it up and dip the sheath in it.. Also- if this helps - stitch from the top down; leave some sinew ; and attach tin cones or copper cones with horse hair .. Make it look frontier-ish... You can add old traade beads, etc.. You do very nice work - stay safe Mate - thom d.

Great job on both.

Now I know what to do when someone teases me for my j leno chin!

Good set of videos. With the price of leather lately in S Africa, one can hardly make the leather sheaths that i used to make in the past. I usually make more of a "belly" with the leather at the blade side, it makes the sheath look better even if it does not adhere to the blade shape. I also make the sides of the sheath wider and glue the protective insert in and make sure there is an overlap which I then glue together. I then sew two layers of leather instead of three, It does the job of protection, makes for easier sewing and looks fantastic when finished. One can argue that the insert is not sewn in, but I have a number of sheaths that i made over 5 years ago when I started doing this and never had a problem of the insert coming loose or shifting..

Just found your channel. Well done on the Mora handle. One tip for guestimating the length of the thread for your main stitching run, Measure the length you have to go, and times it by six. You will have a bit of waste, but that takes into account the fact you are using the two needles and the thickness of the welt as well. Also if you use a belt sander on the edge, followed by a bit of spit and a burnish with a round piece of wood you will burnish the edge, which will help stop water absorbing into the edge over time.

Well done sky 🤙🏼1️⃣0️⃣0️⃣0️⃣
