My first exposure to leatherworking was at Boy Scout camp where I got to tool some leather and lace together one of those pre-made mocassin kits. And then there was Native mocassins and leggings. Now that I know something of the differences between braintain, veg-tan, and chrome-tan I'm starting to buy and plan for bigger and better things.

These sheaths were made of the last of my walnut-dyed veg-tan. I used the scraps from the two sheaths below to make my awls a little safer to carry around.

Last known whereabouts: In my leatherworking toolbox.

This sheath was made for my wife. The leather is veg-tan dyed with walnut hull dye. It was tooled with a stylus and creaser I made myself. This was one of my entries in the 2007 Ice Dragon Pentathlon.

Last known whereabouts: In my wife's garb bag.

The leather for this sheath is also veg-tan that has been dyed with walnut hull dye and tooled with hand-forged tools.

Last known whereabouts: The History Closet

A viking seax sheath for my lady. The leather is veg-tan and has been tooled.

Last known whereabouts: Waiting for me to finish making the seax.

A sheath for my Dad's hunting knife.

A sheath for my lady's throwing knives.

A knife sheath for my brother.
