St Jude sheath
« on: May 23, 2014, 10:28:00 PM »
I got a sheath finished for Doug's Knife in the action this afternoon. Thought I'd post some pics here (proof I got it done in time)   :)  

I don't think I supposed to post on the auction yet so I'll get them on it in the morning.

Wow buddy, I'm speechless, you took a plain Jane ol knife and dressed it in a tuxedo. Course I wouldn't expect any less from a Craftsman like yourself. Your the best my friend.    :thumbsup:    :thumbsup:    

Oh and you can post pics on the Auction listing any time you need.

Thanks guys, pretty cool how you can make a chunk of dead cow look. Almost as good as these bladesmith's can make steel look but not quite.

I guess I have to wait till the auction starts to add the sheath pictures. It says I don't have permission.
