Hello All ,
Getting slowly back into my DIY knife and sheath mode again . I have come across a nice knife I made about 20 tears ago with a quality Nylund scandi blade and a hidden tang Thuya burl handle with brass , buffalo and bone spacers that need a little re shaping ,I will discard the leather sheath I made back then and fancy making a leather and stag handled Sammi style sheath where the stag horn is at almost a right angle at the bottom end of the sheath . Ideally I would use reindeer antler but red deer would suffice as long as it was the right dimensions ( approx 4 3/4" in length and 2 1/2" width which includes the natural angle or branch between two sections of the horn ( hope Ive described that correctly)... anyway has anyone any idea where I can buy such a piece ?
Thanks
