Merry Christmas Knife Dogs!! Enjoy the season. Be blessed.

Yesterday was a good day. I got mail. Inside the package from Georgia was my KITH made by Chris Railey. It is a big girl. Roughly 16 inches overall. 11 inch blade, 5 inch handle. It came with a professional looking description that indicated all the important build items. Chris made...

I have been making knives for around 10 years. The learning curve never stops growing. Mike Miller sent me these abrasive sticks and told me to use them instead of sand paper when hand sanding pre-heat treat. Especially the plunge line. AMAZING!! One third the time and no hand pain. Thank...

Another year, another KITH. I missed one (Bowie KITH). Not gonna happen this year. I am going to get started early. Not going to make this thread a how-to. There are thousands of ways to make a knife. None more right and none more wrong. Each maker has their way. So, this years theme...

Busy weekend. Couple of 9 x 14 inch notebooks. School themed. Fronts. Backs. Middles.

Not a sheath but made from leather. A full size notebook for my college aged son. He goes to Creighton University. A Bluejay. He should show up to class with style. Go Jays!!

I hate myself for doing stupid stuff. When you think just one more tap, don’t do it. I am an idiot and now I start over. All cleaned up for a second attempt.

I now know why handmade holsters are expensive. TIME. Lots of time. Holster, belt and sheath.

A friend of mine is a firefighter. He wants a knife made. He wants a firefighter type theme. I am wondering if anyone has ever seen, purchased or used a mosaic pin with a firefighter type theme. Perhaps a fireman's axe, helmet, something along those lines. Anyone know where a fella could...

A while ago a couple of forum members were asking about stitching and how I constructed my stitches. Lately I have been braiding all the edges of my sheaths. But not today. I am going to be making a simple fold over sheath (taco sheath) and it will be stitched. So I will make a WIP to show...

I missed last year’s Bowie KITH. So I seriously considered making a Bowie. While looking through the shop checking on materials I came across this piece of 1075. Roughly 5.5 inches long, 1.75 inches wide, and .250 inches thick. Think, think, think. What do you make with a short piece of...

Today is National Leather Worker Day. I made myself a Roper Style Wallet. DeMo is my nickname. First two letters of my first and last name. Made from 5-6 oz. leather for the outer layer. 2-3 oz. for the interior. Arrowhead basketweave pattern, round braid on interior, double loop around...

Does anyone on KD have a Champion No. 1 power hammer? Maybe ever use one? Perhaps have any information about them? Thoughts??

After 50 years a new photo album becomes necessary. My Aunt and Uncle celebrated their 50th so I made them a present to replace their broken photo album. This is the back cover. It is their brand. OnePlus.

Get a new revolver and you have to make a range holster.

Today is my oldest son’s birthday. His uncle gave him his Remington .270 deer rifle. Lucky Duck!! Pretty good day, so far. So, I made him a new rifle sling. Even better day. Later, his mom will make him his favorite meal. Great day. Then, Birthday cake! Awesome day.

Not sheaths but leather keepsakes. 5 inches across and 4.5 inches tall. Mothers Day gifts.

I have had several members ask me leather related questions. I am more than willing to help you out if I can. At best, I am an advanced novice. So take my advice with that in mind. I am going to be making a very simple sheath for a knife that I just completed. I will post pictures and...
