In the shop to drill the sheath...
for lacing...

Which I knocked out...

I also brought the knife back in... with the new finish on the handle. I might add more coats later, or not. It's a working knife, not a show piece. ;)
Here are the knife and sheath together...

Worked on the Sheath for Tina, lacing up the belt loop and then gluing in the spacer for the edge. Forgot what the heck they call it.
Back to work later, lacing up the sheath itself.
:P

You can tell a lot about the character of a man...
by the way he treats those who can do nothing for him.

:D

Just have to put some leather sheen on when the antiquing dries.
I put the second coat of colored dyes on, and antiqued the carving to highlight the depth.
I am fairly satisfied. Miss T likes it. :P
