Here it is cemented and riveted but *gasp* where did the wings go? Well, I had to amputate those, so I guess I'll be doing some experimenting

I textured the panels Then I dyed them Next up will be distressing and assembly! ~Noah

Well, I started work on my lightbox today! So far I just have my frame built, and I haven't decided whether to use velum paper, a white sheet, or white garbage bags--I've heard of all three being used, now. Here is a picture of mine, and yes, I meant to leave out a bar on the bottom because...

Now, on to the Companion Sheath! Who gave the welt Red Bull? It has wings! ~Noah

Huh, I could've sworn I posted an update here, but apparently not--that's what I get for waiting until I should be asleep to do it :P. Thanks for posting it up! ~Noah

Any sheath at an improper angle will be uncomfortable if forced into you by a vehicle collision--if not, then whatever material it is made of is probably not tough enough to protect you from the blade. If you are wanting Kydex, I have actually seen a style where you can actually lock the Kydex...

It looks like a mini kitchen knife! I love it! That wood has a very classy look to it as well--simple, but classy. ~Noah

Since it hasn't been made yet, I'm not sure exactly how much it will weigh--I know it's being made of 3/32" thick steel, and I know that the balance point should be somewhere between where the index finger and thumb pinch the blade and where the middle finger rests. I don't need anything...

Why did all of you guys have to do such a good job and make voting tough? I really like all of them! Congratulations and good luck to everyone!

Hello everyone, I got to thinking a while back about how I only have one chef knife...which sucks...a set of utility knives...which suck...and a set of paring knives...which suck. After that thinking, I decided that at the very least I need a new chef knife (more of a santoku, really), since...

Well what have we here? An adjustable strap of some sort: I got the sheath trimmed up a bit: Then I dressed up the edges a little, set in some super heavy duty brass eyelets, and cut the stitching groove: Then it came time to test the fit--much better than cardboard, I'd say: Next...

The sheath is currently cemented together, but I don't have any pictures of that at the moment. What I do have pictures of is this neat little thing--well, this neat 32" to 77" thing. ~Noah

The front of the sheath, in progress. The bit of leather you see sticking out from underneath is the welt that is currently cemented into place--I let the edges be uneven because I'm going to true them up all at once. ~Noah

So, I got the leather dyed: Hmm, if this is the back, then what am I doing with the dee-rings? Oh, you'll see :) And what's this? A strap of some sort? I wonder what that could be for? ~Noah

Looks like a great chopper/slicer to me! Well done! ~Noah

Congratulations!

Nice setup! I'm actually going to need to build a little lightbox for the project I'm currently working on, so maybe I'll post up pictures in here when I do, if you don't mind the addition? ~Noah

You are 8035 days old. I did find a slight flaw in this, though--my birthday is tomorrow, but it seems to think that my birthday has already occurred, so I think it adds a day :P ~Noah

I cut out the front panel, back panel, and welt of the golok sheath: Then I gave it some background texturing: Then I gave the front panel the detail pitting: Ignore the various odd coloring--the leather was still damp in places when I took pictures. ~Noah

Wow, that is really nice! Thanks for the opportunity! ~Noah
