My wife is kinda awesome. This is what she surprised me with this weekend fro my birthday. 156 pound HB!!! I used it 2 or 3 hours this weekend and do not know how I survived without it. She did, I found out later, have ulterior motives. She put in an order for kitchen knives.

Dennis , do you leave drain holes in your sheaths? Looks like it at the bottom of the edge lacing. BTW, those are some mighty fine looking knives and sheaths.

Awesome work Dennis!! They all look great!! What were your spacer and pommel materials?
416 ss for the guards, g10 for the spacers, walnut for the spacers and butt caps, each has a matching mosaic pin in the butt cap, elk for the handles. The knives are for a father and two (2) sons. I wanted them to be similar but not the same. All of the elk handles came from the same shed. All the walnut came from the same piece of walnut, all the mosaic pins are the same. The kids knives have their school colors but in reverse order. Dad got hunter orange. Hopefully, they will like them and use them often.

I thought the pommels looked like wood. Great choice on all the materials. I'm sure they will treasure those knives!

@Dennis Morland What style of stitching is that on your sheaths? like what's it called?
Dennis Morland

It is called round braid. Here is a quick video. Not all that hard to learn how to complete.

Another type of lacing is the double loop. Again, not all that difficult to learn.
