A fellow forum member PM'd a request for a custom sheath with which to carry his small knife.
It is to be a boot sheath, with a riser up along the handle, and a strap with which to secure it to the calf.
I received the knife today, with which to pattern the sheath. Once I nail down the particulars (intended side of carry -left/right, and inside or outside of the calf) I will begin laying out and cutting the actual leather.
Leather will be either 6 oz or 8 oz shoulder material-
As an option, if he so desires, I may include an outer shell of Deerskin around the outside of the sheath. This is softer than the core leather, and much more comfy when in such close, direct contact with the leg.
