You making a hard (plywood) sheath is an unitentional throwback to the Sami people tech. They used wood or antler to fabricate some ot their sheats!
It is more practical to do this than soft leather, better protection for the blade and yourself!

It was for that reason to be honest, didn't trust the newspaper and duct tape one I used lol

If you don't own an Alan Wood/Ray Mears Woodlore knife you shouldn't be allowed near a wood let alone play in it.

Oh absolutely. Must be some kind of amateur!

Great job! You got a new knife very cheap, with all the old feelings and memories attached. What could be better? The olive wood is attractive....

My sentiment exactly mate. I've always thought that with olive wood too love the grain you get with it

haha sounds good mate. You could always form some veg tan around the plywood yourself, pretty simple to do. that way you would have a more traditional sheath with the solid core
