This one was submitted on the 29th of December, so I think it qualifies. And its an outstanding piece of work by Kid Terico http://knifedogs.com/showthread.php?22132-Old-Sheath Might steal the pics for the nomination thread....

Thank you Steve, I know the pics will flow. :) The Dave Cole Memorial I think will become an institution around here, if only for what he has done for this forum and what he has done for the craft in general. He was one of the first to take me under his wing and show me what a craftsman needs...

Hey everyone, first off let me thank y'all for making this one of the best sheath making forums on the internet! One of the easiest to moderate and one with the largest pool of talent I have seen anywhere. Congrats to all! I need a favor. I am searching over the threads of the past year...

I've seen those Hobby Lobby leather packs and most of them are that odd in between leather, its chrome tanned then veggie tanned to give it some body. It makes for a strange feeling leather both dry and wet. I have some of it from a supplier (not to be named) that stuck in in a roll I bought...

Good question. I can imagine a lot of skinned knuckles if your not careful. That rounded blade is not easy on a stone. Probably why I am resisting getting one. So far nothing my Stanley utility knife cant handle. :biggrin:

The last one pictured is what I was thinking would be the most practical method for attachment to molle equipment. I've done similar in leather, and I"ve seen it done in nylon as well. Its as easy as cutting two inch wide straps.

Awesome!! I like it. :)

This is they way I do it. I sand the edges untill they are smooth with no, or as little as possible, tool marks with the power sander I have. Both belt and disk, the disk is great for leveling and the belt is great for finishing. Then after edging I take a sponge and wet the edges lightly and...

Very nice! I owe you a PM KT, sorry, I have been sidelined by life again so it may be a little bit.

Hi Doug, Looking at the knife, very nice by the way! I wouldn't worry to awful much about the up swept point on that one digging in. I've done sheaths with a much more drastic point and they are doing fine. A little more care needs to be had with the point when inserting the knife in the sheath...

We're constantly thinking about you Linda, thoughts and prayers. Stacy says if you need to talk please dont hesitate to call, she is a very good listener.

Simply outstanding!! I am in awe of what your producing!!! I'd love to spend a day with you.

One thing I do have to regret, was never finishing with Dave what I wanted to have made. One of these days I will track one down so I can have one of his creations. I have know him over ten years, if thats not procrastination, then I dont know what it is! I will never forget Dave for all...

I dont know what to say, devastation comes to mind. Many tears, many memories, and many days before this really hits home. Way too much of this I've seen lately and I'm not taking it well. Linda, please let us know if you need ANYTHING ok? Shock is a good word, why is it always the good...

To add to our fearless leaders excellent advice....... :5: The kydex needs to have some tooth for the glue to adhere to. Take some very rough grit sand paper and really take it to the plastic till you can feel a nice toothy texture to the surface, both sides if your both lining and covering the...

Good to hear your up and about, all be it slowly, but up is much better than down in my book. :)

It is a rather endearing quality eh? :biggrin: Good to know we're among like minds! :cool:

Oh before I forget, I called Dave a sick puppy. heh heh heh. Though, it does take one to know one. :5:

Thanks for the update KT! :1: I have yet to have one of Dave's knives in my collection, but someday soon I plan to correct that! No way he is going to get out of making one just for me one of these days. Its on my bucket list. :biggrin: DC Knives Texas Carry Bowie, mmmmmmmm :drool:

My brother in leather Dave Cole is one sick puppy right now. I don't do this very often, but I feel we need to send some "Get Well" wishes, he deserves it. So Get well soon Dave, its too quiet around here without you!
