Best sheath making video I've seen, because you include so much detail others leave out. Thanks for taking the time to do this.

This was SO helpful! Ive been struggling on how to get a good fit and also make a good looking sheath. so thank you for taking the time to do this!

Great instructional Denis! I learned a lot. I found the nail in the chuck tip for making holes especially ingenious!

Nicely explained and demonstrated. I agree with another commenter that treating the final product, after dyeing, with neatsfoot oil is the important final step. Thanks!

Very informative thank you for posting these videos i really enjoy watching them and learning something new ✌️

Very nice and really informative on how to do it. Thank you

Brilliant channel, very interesting craftsmanship

Excellent content as always. I have a couple of knives that needs sheathes, but keep procrastinating on them because I have never done any leather work. This motivated me to get it started.

Thanks SO MUCH for creating this outstanding beginner’s knifemaker series! Absolutely invaluable to me and I’ll refer back to it many times.

I'm number 2! Woohoo! I needed this info.

Great job!

I love leather work it's by far my favorite part of knife making. The bad part about that is I absolutely SUCK!!!!!!!!!!! 😂 great video thanks for the help

Never saw the nail in the drill press trick. Nice tip

Great video

Good Morning 🤘🏻

Jeeze I wish this video was out before I had to work through everything myself haha Dennis, you forgot 2 (in my opinion) very needed things: There is no drain hole in the bottom of your sheath, which means if it rains it might fill up and the knife could rust even easier/ condensation needs a way out so it can "breath". And after dyeing the leather you put no finish on there. The dye WILL eventually rub of and make the clothes/fingers/knife/belt dirty. That would mean a ruined t shirt if the customer is wearing something white and it stains black... I use fiebings resolene now, it is some acryllic stuff and will seal off the leather and should prevent paint from rubbing off. And for the edges of the sheath, fiebings gum tragacanth will help make them look even nicer. And even after resolene, I would still add in some leather wax ot neatsfoot oil to help make the sheath nicer to touch and to immediately "care" for it, as the leather usually is very hard and rough after seeing water or beeing stained. I´m an absolute noob in this topic and have only made 4 sheaths so far but that was the information I found, when looking for the correct way to do this. Edit: And to say something nice and not just criticism, nice video as always :D

Link where you got ur makers mark for the leather

👏👏👏🤜🤛

Why would you make a belt sheath for a small kitchen knife 🔪?
