Really got the leatherworking bug now!

[sausage100uk]

Had an early finish at work today so I had a bash at another project, Id never liked the wooden kukri sheath that mine came with and I wanted to start using it more to split down and process small wood. To make it more portable I wanted a leather sheath, hence todays project. obviously the shape of the blade means that the back of the sheath has to be open, i chose to use a popper to keep it closed, its not finished yet but good progress so far.
