I am having a real hard time deciding what colour I want to dye my sheath, or whether I want to dye it at all. I have been looking at the fiebing colour chart and it is really hard to visualise just what this might end up like
Also in regards to finishing I am thinking of Carnauba Cream and Leathersheen and Tan Kote on the inside. Afterwatching a useful video on youtube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X1pAMZQpYFA).
I was hoping that in this thread people could post a picture of their sheaths made with natural veg-tan hide and then describe the dyes and finishes they used. Especially, dyes, since I am hoping this will help me choose a dye for my own sheath (When I make it!)
It would be hopeful if I could see what an undyed but finished sheath looks like as well Since I hear that using the Carnauba Cream and Leathersheen darkens it slightly.
Cheers,
Matt
