Sheath for Mora Bushcraft Black

[NoName]

I really love this knife. After owning and using customs and a lot of models I tend to really like this one.
Now a model with a wooden handle and no coating Mora

Anyway the sheath was so ugly and bad (lose a knife) so a made a new one

3,6 mm veg tan leather
no 8 tread
neatsfoot oil + beeswax/pinetar mix finish

Hope you folks like it ?

I prefer the leather sheath on the Moras too. Nice job.

Great looking sheath. I also love my mora's. Though I've nothing to compare as I've never owned anything else except a condor, which I don't use at all.
I will be taking the baton and will have a go at a sheath for mine too. Thanks for sharing.

no thanks Quietone, so good you will have a go too please share the result.
Ps I have a (very good) woodlore clone 4mm too, but I prefer 3mm. Just better performance and strong enough. I hardly use that woodlore clone...

Okay, will do. Doubt mine will be as good as yours though. I recently put a wooden handle on my mora 2000. Completely changes the feel of the knife, as you would expect. But there is something else, which makes it all the better. I did it. Something I'd never have thought was possible but for this forum of strangers and the inspiration they spread. Pat yourselves on your backs chaps.

that is so cool, I mean, everybody got his own touch, and I like it when I can see that
It's always good if you like it

Very tidy stitching and a good shape... I like that

thank you Dewi.
Yeah I think I got Lucky with the stiching .
The shape is a favorite of mine, a combo of ideas of mine and Ian Atkinson Leather and Ray's Woodlore Knife Sheath
The weld inside is exactly fitting to the blade, which no one can see
