Scabbard for the Euro Dagger
« on: July 15, 2012, 02:30:07 PM »
  Center seam sheath of 6/7 oz vege-tan carving leather sewn with linen thread, and cuir boulli treated for hardness. Throat of 22 ga steel. Frog locket is one piece from 3/8" cold rolled bar, sawn, ground and filed to shape. The locket is pinned and silver brazed to the throat, the top plate is attached with  600° 95/5 cadmium solder and is slotted in a diamond opening to match the blade shape. Very lightly aged. Hope you enjoy a look.

Wick, I can make a passable center seam because of your tutorial but your finish work ,I think, only comes from many years of experience and the hands of a master craftsman.
Beautiful work on the sheath and the knife.

 And I thought the knife was well done, the scabbard is just as neatly done.  I have said it before...amazing work.
