I design my sheaths on the computer. This way I can easily repeat them if needed. Here's the paper template taped to the leather. I'm using 3mm veg tanned cow hide.
Shape cut out, edges beveled and stitches marked.
And dyed, ready for stitching. Not sure what was going on with the light here but the colour isn't that funky in real life
5 per inch mate. with a 7 (which i had initially) you need more thread and more time to sew. 7 times the length in thread than the stitch line for a 7pi, or 5 times the length for a 5pi, lot quicker, just as secure.
