Dad's knife/sheath is all finished up. It's my second knife I've ever made. When dad heard I was getting into knife making he asked for one from my first run in any design/materials I wanted to do. He offered to pay me for it (which absolutely is not going to happen because he deserves a gift), but he has no idea this is coming for Christmas. I hope he likes it.
Knife: 1/10" Elmax, scandi ground, 4" blade, woodlore handle in Thuya burl over ivory G10, Sally Martin mosaic pins
Sheath: 9/10oz leather, two toned in natural and black to compliment the brightest and darkest tones in the handle, two piece welt allowing for a functional drain hole, dangler design to hang below an un-tucked shirt or jacket, dangler loop has snaps for easy donning/doffing of the knife without removing belt, D-ring I cold forged into a twisted pattern out of brass, it was given basic tooling and double stitched with a saddle stitch. It's been sealed, treated, and covered in light beeswax so it is highly water resistant and would almost require being submerged to actually get wet.
