Making A Scout Style Leather Knife Sheath - Leather Craft

In this leather project video, I design & make a scout style leather knife sheath that can be used for right or left handed carry. The sheath is made from natural vegetable tanned leather and has been tooled and hand dyed with an antique sunburst finish. Contact cement and a strong saddle stitch help hold the sheath together. I hope you enjoy and are inspired to create your own scout style leather knife sheath. What is the Gospel? 👇 Check out my work on my Instagram account .
