I'm working on a couple knives, and I'd like to make a sheath or two for them. I've also got an idea for a combo leatherman/surefire sheath to wear while at work. Buying a custom means long waits and high prices.

I'd like to get into leather work, but I don't know the first thing about it. Can someone point me to some good resources? I'm not looking to do anything fancy at first, more just working pieces that will be worn everyday. I need to know how to get into it without spending $500 on every tool out there. I don't need everything, just the basics.

Thanks guys!
