I started as a maker because I was frustrated with a lack of quality goods available to average folks like me. I realized that sometimes the best option is to make it yourself. It's rewarding to create somethings useful, durable, and beautiful. In the end it's worth it to take the time to learn how to make it the "wright" way.

how has it held up after a year? I got a block of otterwax a long time ago and have used it to add some water resistance to a number of my leather and canvas products like boots and backpacks. Never had problem with the boots except maybe I overdid it as it became nonbreathable and sweaty. With the backpacks, the high amount of movement in the fabric meant I had to reapply it more often but it's usually a quick job. I had only used the method where you rub the wax bar onto the surface and used a hairdryer to melt it in. Multiple passes depending on how many layers I want. In fact today I dug up the bar from my tool chest and waxed a leather watch strap to give it some more water protection. Looks great! I love the darkening affect it has on materials.
Dove posso acquistare questo coltello
You shouldn't keep receipts in a leather wallet, the ink on printed ones is corrosive
I've molded a lot of knife sheaths and never thought to staple the leather down, good idea
Beautiful sheath, man! 👍
Nicely done!!
Absolutely beautiful 110. Knife sheath. How may I purchase one from you?
Hey, Im actually looking to do this. whats the difference of doing a baseball stitch or doing a stich where you have thread already going through the holes that you would tie together, like a diamond stitch. and would you be manually putting this thread in ( the thread that would line the holes), or could you do that with a sewing machine?
Do you wear it so the part of the knife sticking out is facing upwards or downwards on your side?
I like your hot wax dipping method for molded sheaths. Saves from having to harden the leather to retain stiff form. I would not think this method would be good for items that you want to keep flexibility in. I mostly just rub straight bees wax on the exterior of the leather (front , back, edges) and buff by hand to create the heat needed to melt the wax into the outer layer. This process has to be redone periodically but makes things water resistant and will still stay flexible.
You are correct. The wax dipping does not lend itself well to flexibility
@@wyomingwright I am glad I caught your video. I have a few items I made for fishing tackle I would like to stiffen and water (proof/resist) this just showed me everything I had been looking for. Thank You!
The unused portion wax and beef tallow how long will it keep ? Will it go rancid ?
Who made the sheath in the end of clip?
Well done. Beautiful knife and great video.
Looks great! Gonna do all few of mine now!
Glad to hear it man! I couldn't believe it when I first saw those. It's like someone buying a beautiful old school revolver, blued or nickel plated with beautiful walnut panel grips on them and them taking the wooden grips off and putting ugly ass oversized rubber grips on it with a built in laser and thinking it looks amazing lol. Glad to hear it and to admit you changes your mind instead of just continuing to go along with it because that's what's popular is wonderful to hear! Don't even know you but I proud of you!
This was a pleasure to watch. I enjoyed it. The sheath came out beautiful. Great workmanship! My Buck 110 is slobbering all over it.
Great job. Thanks for posting. Can you design one for a regular carry instead of a side carry? That would be great. I am having trouble designing.
These looks like iron age forged knife
Indigenous people heats the file up to make it softer. Then later
@WyomingWright I appreciate your mindset and I’ve always found a solution to anything holding me back. If I don’t have a specific tool I find or build a work around and keep on moving and try my hardest to accomplish what I had set in mind. Most the battle I think many people face is lack of creativity. They see others build or make something and think they can’t do it without the same tool when if they just thought about it for a bit they could come up with an option to make things happen. I enjoy your videos and positivity and I also appreciate the fact you lift commenters up and tell them not to look at themselves as a victim and they can do it and I respect that about you. Have a great day !!!
Thanks for sharing !
Obnoxious color cover tan ? Could have went with the better & more eye appealing color and that is the super generic one color interior blk. Especially on a thing like this the appliance car or wait that's another Japanese car that makes appliances with wheels which I'm definitely not saying here I'm not giving them any free advertising but they used to make a super neat car called the mrtwo. Meaning mid rear engine run about.
Burning the ends of the thread is super weak and will be the first place where the cover starts coming apart especially after the grunt struggle Walmart parking lot maneuvers. The best way to secure the end of a stitch thread is to simply tie a multiple not & should last even the said Walmart maneuver.
Definitely the super wrong super amateur way of measuring a cercumfrence of a confirmed loose nut behind the wheel, The only properly universally known method of measuring said width of said wheel is simply measuring across the thing and that's the width, the other measurement is the thickness of the thing & that's stupidly easy to simply wrap a string & take a measurement usually for car's like this 4 to 4 & and half thickness and 15 inch across. Period
@Wyoming Wright, I just discovered your little slice of KZread, all good info but I went the same route as you did but instead, I used a new dual arbor Foley Belsaw motor from a key cutter machine $60. I had help adding an adjustable speed controller (generic Chinese) but I don't use it as much as I thought I needed.
One of the best Buck knifes !
Not the most exciting scenarios, disarming bombs or nothing
Well, that burrito kinda hit the lower intestine like a bomb if that means anything
Hi good nigth congrautlations, and once again GREAT video, special details on this car part. Thank you, your follower and friend Oscar.
Watched all 3 videos…excellent design and work!
WOW amazing talent
Hey there. I don't know if your old enough to remember, but in the 60"s, 70's and 80's Buck 110's and 112's were super easy to gravity flick out just by holding it by the handle. We would were the sheaths upside down, then flick the button open and the knife would drop right in to your hand. Ready for deployment. Also, Buck used to make their sheaths a lot looser. Thanx for the video my Bladed Brother 👍 ⚔️ ✝️ 🇺🇲

Good info (wax/tallow temp and time) buried in these comments if you guys have time to do a little mining.
How much stitching material should I order for a similar size wheel?
I use Maine Thread Company. I’d just get one of their braided waxed spools for $11. I think you’ll only use 6 ft or so for this project but then you’ll have plenty left for more leather projects!
Don't get tired to watch your videos. Lots of expertice and quite a learning experience. Simply Thanks!!!
The Buck 110 is a classic! I don't EDC mine because it's a bit heavy and when its in the sheath on my hip it digs into my love handles. Still love it though!
I used to open my puma like that when I was young , it wasn’t very good for it after a while . But I’ did practice a lot . And it’s a different maker .
As one artisan to another I say very well done sir. For me art is the balance of form and function and that sheath is certainly that. A thing of beauty to behold and to use. Excellent!!
Wow simple and elegant. Good job
Hello, liked this so much i tried it to day! Couple hiccups but learning as i go! But i have a question. *-- About 55gallon drum you got small holes or anybottom venting??--* I dont know why but i put a 2 foot piece of metal conduit 2inch With threaded coupling.
Awesome !
Perché hai messo nel fornello elettrico il coltello ? Grazie
Excellent tutorial, learned a lot. Not that I have arrived, I am just getting started but I did learn from another leather crafter that when stitching you can have both threads pulled through the back of the leather when you cut and burn them and it gives a cleaner look and you have less chance of burning the leather on the presentation side of your project.
I’ve done that but I like the nice tight finish you get pulling the threads in opposite directions. I don’t mind the small melted bit in the front. It motivates me to keep everything tight and clean instead of just hiding it all in the back😁
You get the tight finish from tying a knot with the two loose ends of thread inside the item being stitched. The ends are then hidden inside the item and never have a melted point on the outside of your project. Also if you are using the correct saddle stitch where each loop of the stitch is wrapped together then the stitches don't move before you are able to clip the end and melt it.
Стою ты больстер не подогнал , чтобы клинок чуть в него входил? Это же явное ослабление конструкции ножа , при нагрузке лезвие сломается в месте перехода его в концевик. Жаль будет потерять такой красивый нож из за такой мелочи.
Gran trabajo con el cuchillo. La música espantosa.
I actually have a nice little collection of 110s and 112s for which I've paid next to nothing. I've made a hobby of picking up broken ones at flea markets and on eBay and sending them into Buck to be rebladed like new for 10 dollars or repaired under warranty. Some people just don't know what they have. My collection waxes and wanes because given what I pay, I also love giving them away. They make great social currency.
really nice! think i should also start this project
Do you make a quick draw leather knife shieth for. A Victronox Hunter Pro ? How much the knife is close to an inch longer than the Buck 110
Use a wood double twist clamp for wood no stitching poney necessary!
Just a doubt... Will the dip effect the thread? I would prefer doing the dip before stitching.
Not at all
