    Default Custom 7 Day sheath

    I decided to put together a 7 day set of 8/8 or bigger blades. My problem was the 7 day roll I already have is to snug for the 8/8 blades.
    So I made this. Its a 7 day roll that will fit up to 10/8 size blades. Its made from kangaroo which is very soft and very strong. Its my first time doing anythng with sewing leather but feel free to comment. any help is apreciated. So you have an idea of size the 2 blades on the right are full 8/8 wedges

    I like what you've done with that sheath. It's not only practical, but also pleasing to the eye. Good work.

    That is a very nice looking sheath. Your razors look like they will be well protected in it.

    Nice job

    VERY NICE!!

    Much nicer than what I made with buckskin. More finished and better design. Dang, now I'll have to tan more hides.

    Nice, especially considering it was your first time sewing something.
    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.
