This was the first sheath knife I bought when I joined the British Army in 1974, I still own it to this day. .nothing special about the sheath it 😂was all about the knife when I saw it in the store in Scotland. Bought many others over the decades but this one was special to me.💂‍♂️🪖⛑️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇨🇦

That is just beautiful. You don't mind me askin where are you located I have the same knife and would like for someone to restore it for me.

Sick project. I've got a few questions: - In some of your other projects, you use an aussie conditioner while here you use resolene. What determines when you seal it and when you only condition it? - How is your experience with the wuta tools? they are pretty cheap on the website, but I'm a little skeptical about the quality - what are the pads you use for dying? Thanks

Another great design. Nice to get a peek at your pencil design process. What is the tool you're using to grab the saddle stitch needle? It looks like the jaws are smooth. Thank you.

I love watching your videos,you do awesome leather work Why do you case leather with saddle soap solution? .thanks in advance

@RoadAgentLeather

5 ай бұрын

Thanks! It's a technique I learned a long time ago. The soap helps lubricate the leather fibers. This makes for better stamp impressions. It also helps a swivel knife glide through the leather better (though I didn't use one in this video). It also slows the drying process some so you don't have to rewet as often.

Thanks! As you can see in the beginning, the blade was pretty beat up. I have no idea what someone in the past was hacking at (I'm guessing it was made in the 1950s by the markings). It was butter-knife dull. I was trying not to completely re-profile the edge by taking off too much.

I have that same Work Sharp tool. I'm still figuring out how much pressure to use when sharpening with the coarsest stone.

Do you dilute the dye that you have in that big jug, or is it pure? I have tried diluting mine (fiebings pro) with alcohol but i find it soaks into the leather too easily and is harder to control.

Always a pleasure. Do you think the Resolene when airbrushing? What do you use to clean the airbrush after use? I only use mine for dye work and clean with alcohol. Would like to try some of the top coats with it. Why did you use it this time instead of a wipe on method?

@edgell3

5 ай бұрын

I also use Resolene through an airbrush. In fact I have a dedicated airbrush and bottle for the process. Resolene is a water based product. Dilute the Resolene 50/50 with water and adjust the airbrush pressure to produce a fine even mist. Apply two or more coats as desired, allow to dry between coats. Five to ten minutes should do. Clean with an 80/20 ratio of denatured alcohol with water. You may want to breakdown the airbrush and give it through cleaning as you feel necessary. Hope this helps.😎

Hello! That is a tubular rivet. The star is referred to as the "splash". I purchase them from Tandy Leather. They're very strong and are handy for locations that would be difficult to sew in or use "standard" rivets. You need a setter to install them properly. There is an inexpensive hand setter, but it only works on the very shortest rivets. Otherwise, you need a press and a set of dies.

It's called "casing" and it preps the leather to accept tooling. You're trying hydrate the leather all the way through. Putting it in a bag, box, or simply covering it allows the moisture to fully penetrate before drying out.
