    A simple bit of leatherwork:

    a while back i made a nice leuku for myself and have been trying to decide on a sheath for it for a long time,finally i came up with a design that suited my needs,its not traditional for a leuku but i think it works ok. The dangler ring anf the buckle i made from bison bone:

    Wow that's nice. That buckle is something else.

    Isn't it nice when someone says "that's a great piece of kit, where did you buy that", then you can modestly reply "you can't buy it, I made it myself". The moral is, it's amazing what you can achieve if you put your mind to it.

    hello,
    EXCELLENT. I've seen a similar design a type of leather bandolier which has additional pouches around the front & rear. I really like that knife BTW.
