leather sheath for deval bushcrafter.

[luckylee]

I was commissioned by our very own JD, to make a leather sheath for his deval bushcrafter, he wanted a scout carry sheath, and an option to wear vertically, when required, he also wanted this to be compact, so i didn't put the leg retention tab, at the bottom, and slimmed the welt up for him, and took it as close to the knife as i could with out compromising the sheaths integrity.
he wanted black stitching, and the name of the knife on the sheath, it has my usual retractable retention strap to aid with deployment.
so this is what i made him.
hope you like it.

Wicked, that's everything I wanted it to be. It'll really do justice to the knife it is going to clothe......

Can't wait to get them together.

Cheers Lee.

It's left handed that's why. You would never have noticed the difference if I hadn't told you.

Best make her one mate, exactly the same. I'll never hear the end of it otherwise.

emma, do you want your initials putting on?
and if so what are they.
i no that it will be E.D but do you have a middle initial?
or would you like it plain.

How about your date of birth stamped on it too Emma

 

[EmmaD]

Make it just the same as donkey brains there. That way if I break it, I can swap it with his without him noticing. Deval is my name too. But I wear it so much better.

It arrived today. Cracking sheath. Tooling, stitching and overall quality is outstanding. It really sets the knife off and gives me multiple options for carry that I've been wanting for this knife for a few years now. The knife fits like a glove, which is no mean feat as it is a very odd shape that isn't the easiest to make a sheath for. Cheers Lee.
