Crafting a Custom Leather Knife Sheath from Scratch

Making a hand sewn, tooled leather sheath for a bowie knife. I start with a template and cut it out of nine-ounce vegetable tanned leather, including the welt and snap loop. I go through the process of layout, sewing, basket weave tooling, dyeing and treating the sheath with oil.
