Making a leather sheath for my british army combat knife, been on stop for a while waiting on some tools I ordered to turn up. but almost finished.
Been way to hot to work in the shed this last week, was in there yesterday looking for some bits and within a few mins I started leaking

Made a Leather pouch this afternoon, not sure what I am going to put in it as yet but will find a use for it. Maybe my fire starting kit.

My knife and a gouge chisel

And my wife with sand paper lol ( I HATE sanding)

 

[fullbandit]

cool
not used and sand paper on mine lol
i worked out the that if i used the point of the blade (the curved bit) and scraped sideways i could hollow out the bowl (slowly lol)

are you going to use anything to seal the wood ??? i've used a little bit of olive oil at the moment

already done lol, used linseed oil ( Raw not Boiled, the boiled is toxic) and once that dried used beeswax to seal it

 

[ReubenBushcraft]

Where do you get the leather?

 

[Gazo]

I was given a whole hide but you can buy small off cuts etc on the bay of E

 

[Gazo]

Just finished my multi tool sheath.
It's not perfect as I used the small off cuts I had left over from making my knife sheath.
But it's strong fits well and better than the crappy one that came with it.

 

[Matt]

looking good mate

 

[ReubenBushcraft]

Hmm.... For free?

 

[Kernowek Scouser]

That looks grand Gazo

Other than making a rod for my own back, I have recently carved a spoon that I am rather happy with and fashioned a para cord* bracelet in something close to the cobra weave style.

​* I actually used different coloured guy lines I had knocking about, as this was a practice go and didn't want to waste loads of actual para cord.

 

[Bushcraft Rob]

Well guys i see that there has been a few over the fire tripods on the forum as of late. So i've given it some thought and came up with this, a Back packable one, doesn't take long to assemble, its light weight, strong and sturdy and as you can see by one of the photos its holding the weight of a 15KG gas bottle.
