Made this up for the little knife i sold earlier in the week.

Its a combi, pocket/neck/belt carry.

Made from 3.5mm veg tanned leather dyed mahogany, and finished with mink oil and carnauba creme.

Thanks for looking :)

i like it, but imo the retaining strap looks a little out of proportion maybe its the shape of the end bit. looks like a piece of qulaity workman ship though and thats a really rather nice knife!! Looks like it would be good for skinning
 
Thanks MrEd :)

I know what your saying about the strap, i kind of judged it a little wrong when designing it, The next one will be altered slightly by adding a little waist where the strap meets the main body to pull it in a bit. I couldnt alter it as it was or the strap would be too loose.

We live and learn :D

Cheers for the constructive critisism though :)
 
yeah that would do it, it was just an minor thing, the shape of the belt loop and the way it flows from there into the body (ignoring the strap) is really nice - i think your on to something!

did you make the knife from scratch?
 
Thanks Rich :)

If you need the use of any tools or anything to do the knife you have, you can come over and use some of mine anytime you like fella.

That's mighty damn fine of you

I might just take you up on that, I wouldn't mind a few hours watching a pro at work.

I'll bring the cake :)
