Im going to atempt to make a leather sheath for my more clipper, however id like to do this via a printable pattern but googles given me no help in searching for one.

So does anyone have a pattern for the mora clipper sheath?
 
Hi RM27, I don't have any templates that I can pass on as they are from previous attempts at sheaths and have gone wrong so I keep it as a template or I do it without one

If you can't find a template, why not try making one out of cardboard? You could draw the pattern you want on it and wrap it around the knife to see if it fits and then transfer that to the leather with any modifications.

The handle is a 2 piece job, basically 2 blocks of wood inlet with a 1/4 chisel to the shape of the tang then clamped and glued with gorilla glue which is strong foaming pu adhesive, many will tell you epoxy resin is the only thing to use but I prefer this stuff it cures quicker and foams up to fill any gaps or voids.

If I can work out how I'll post a pic if you are interested.

Makes a much nicer knife than the original clipper although they are great budget knives.
