in french we called it the "Martyr" because its the part who suffering :) Thank you for your video :)

Just bought one of these knives from Weaver. Thank you for the pattern. Saturday project.

Thank you for sharing the template. For teaching how to as well. 🙏👍

Great video! The Japanese skiving knife is one of my favorite tools for leather work. Easy to sharpen and versatile!

Simple and practical. I will make. Thank you!

Exactly what I was looking for. Thanks!

Thank you for the patterns and the video, both well done.

Thank you for the free pattern. Your work is clean and nice 👌🏼

Looking forward to your hammer. Looks really nice. Always enjoy your videos and instructions commentary

Hoping to get some skiving knives for my birthday, and now I have a project for them!

Nice! I recently purchased one of these and hadn’t got around to making a sheath for it.

I have made one from scarp and it great, Made the snap just slightly different, I am improving, Good stuff and so relaxing.

Great content always!!

Very timely as I just finished making a skiving knife. Had to adapt the large pattern a bit but works well! And I definitely feel safer with that super sharp blade covered.

great video and thank you for the pattern

Wow that’s good idea ^^for knife case ill try it today!!

Much love my brother

Nice! Thank you!

Excelente! Vou fazer.

This is going to be my first project.

Another cool video, thanks! (It's called a welt)

Very good. Thank you. Brother.

Great project. A very useful accessory. Sebastian from Brasil 😎

is the pattern not available any more 😥

It’s called a welt.

Thank you.

Funny, this was my very second project last week! I improvised it, it's less refined and without the button, I just wanted to get my nads dirty on something simple and I'm happy I did. I learned a lot from your videos and have a couple of your patterns ready for making. This weekend I plan on making the flap card wallet! Thanks for the informative videos.

I made my sheath after watching your skiving knife video. I did a couple of things differently than seen here. I designed mine with the strap already attached to the back piece, so the strap and the back are one piece of leather. I also put a liner in mine to cover the snap so I wouldn't run into the snap with my blade. Just to be fancy I dyed the welt piece blue, so my sheath has a cool navy stripe running down the center and blue stitching cause I love the color blue with the natural veg tanned. The only thing that I did completely different was stab the ever loving sh*t out of myself with an awl because I couldn't get the punches to go all the way through the leather. I marked the stitches with the punches but had to use the awl to go through all of the layers of leather... Keep those fingers out of the way of the awl's path..

New hammer. Nice!

Thanks

So cool

Очень даже здорово! Спасибо огромное.

Thank you "E" you rock. 👩🏿‍💻👍🏿 👻

Excelente 👍👍👍

Great video. Would you go about making a sheath for an ice pick the same way?

I made sheaths like these for my three best woodworking chisels. But I forgot to open them up with a bone folder afterwards and one of the chisels went straight through the back when I first inserted it. At least my sharpening skills have improved.

It seems like when you went with buckle guy I lost the pattern for the sheath for the skiving knife the showed from weaver. Can you get it back I would like to have that pattern. Thank you

Gotta love how he says the pattern will be the first link in the description, only for neither of the links on the description to be the pattern

This is soooo funny! Mine looks nothing like yours...what happened? I guess it takes a lot of practice, huh? Thanks for the video!

Schöne Handwerksarbeit.👍

for a minute i thought this was about making my own skiving knife. i have the tools to do it and probably dont need to watch a video on it. but this would make it easy to store away without worrying about slicing fingers reaching for it.

Great video, thanks for sharing ! Would you happen to have the pattern ? I looked for it on the website and haven't found it.

Very good work. How to choose a Leather Skiving Knife for the right hand??? Thank you...

Thanks for this video. I have a bunch of leather knives I need to make sheaths for. Wouldn't it be a good idea to cover the backside of the snap to prevent it from marring the knife?

Interesting approach skiving the welt at the opening, I've never thought of that. Do you think that would work well on a large knife sheath? I make chef knife sheaths for a knifemaker friend (usually 2-3mm thick blades and I aim for 75% of that as my welt thickness). Skiving it at the end might give it a little extra "grip" on the blade, but maybe too tight sliding in. I'd be interested to try it but would be a risky one given the time that goes into a large sheath. Cheers.

Any info on snaps as there are many for different thicknesses etc. Head diameter specs too.

Just what kind of glue/cement are you using? Does that cement dries clean/transparent? Thanks love your work

lol i just finished this for my knife and it sure looks/performs better than my "fold over and rivet" cover/sheath i made i simply traced the outline of the knife and added approx 1/4" all the way around the outline, cut out the template and away i went your beautiful projects inspire this newbie to venture deeper in to the leather crafting world tyfs

Does it make sense to use the same gauge (thickness) of leather to create cushions and back rests for chairs - specifically a mid-modern style?

Good morning, is the free pattern still available?

I appreciate the pattern, but I figured it out on my own and made it on the fly. Not very difficult, mine doesn't look perfect, but it does the job. I made mine right after I watched your video when you said it's easy to get cut with those skiving knifes laying around, so I made them immediately after no delay.

Hi I’m new to leatherwork. Can you tell me the size of the priking irons you’re using? Thanks

I’ve watched a lot of videos of leather crafters and everyone seems to waste a lot of material. For example, in this project, why didn’t you make that first “rough” cut with a straight edge and use that straight edge as one of the sides of your pattern? Although it only saves about 1/4” or so, those waste cuts add up, and the material isn’t cheap. Is there a reason?

Nice! What kind or what number of snaps you use?

What brand cobblers hammer is that you use for tapping glued edges?

Good luck finding the free pattern. Just bull!

I need a 'Corter Pounder' in my life! Checked the website and did not see it. Was it custom made or ordered? I need to add this to my tool collection!

Leather Sheaths use to attract moisture and affects iron to rust, i mean it's good to protect the iron with oiled thick fabric.

What type of hammer is that? And what type of glue are you using ? Thank you in advance

Just in case u're ran out of ideas. U can try to make cafe racer seat. 👍🏼

What kind of glue do you use ?

Is there any way to get these patterns still? Couldnt find it on the weaver website anymore

First off, I just started leather crafting and your channel has been a huge inspiration to me, so thank you. I'm making a larger modified version of this sheath for a nikiri chef knife out of 4.5oz - 5.5oz veg tan. I'm noticing that my stitching holes are nice and tidy on the side I'm punching through, but they meander all over the place on the back side. Also, I'm having a really hard time extricating my stitching chisel from the 3 layers of leather I'm punching through. Do you have any insight?

I got ahead of myself after I cut out the pattern and forgot to give and put the snap in. Start over or modify.

I followed along and made my own skiving knife sheath...only for my knife to cut through one of the faces because I didn't put it in _perfectly_ straight. Is it normal to have to be that careful about the precise angle of the blade as the sheath goes on? If not, is there a mistake I may have made?

When you tap down the glued pieces do you get little hammer marks on the leather from the edges of the hammer? If so how do you correct that for customer items? Also, which glue do you use? Love the videos!!

Can't seem to find your plans or tools list anywhere here or on the site you are associated with.

What brand of hammer do you use? I've been looking for something similar forever

The templates are not available anymore i can't see them anywhere ?

I clicked on the link, but cannot find the pattern. Am I missing it somehow? Please help. Thank you!

I can’t find the pattern on your website

How do you get your chisels to go through the leather so easily. 3 layers and it sounds like your not even tapping too hard. I have chisels from tandy leather and I can hardly get them through 1 layer-not even a very thick piece of leather.

What glue are you using? I can’t find one I like yet.

👏👏👏

I downloaded the pattern and messed one of the pieces up. Now I can’t find the link to re print. Can we still get the pattern since you’ve switched company’s.

👍👍👍👍👍

Are you selling your cutting handles yet?

Where is the pattern? I clicked the link and didn't see it.

what is the thickness of the skin

I really appreciate your work. keep it up. but the pattern, unfortunately, was not free.

Missed the “free pattern” 😮

I don't know if you work for Weaver but I've written 3 emails to their customer service as I'm getting an error logging in. Your current default ship to is invalid. Please contact customer service And I never get a response back. I'm a small time leather company in Tasmania.

I usually make a fold were the knife is sharp so I don’t have to put a weld

It's called a welt.
