Looks good, CD. That's a nice, balanced-looking rig.

Resolene man, I didn't believe it when people told me it's great for resisting dye but I swear that stuff is magic. It really lets just enough of the antiquing gel bite to make the final finish interesting.

Don't know if this is the right place, but I tryied on The Leather Shop with no response. Does anyone know how Scott Kreiman  of Camano Ridge Custom Leather is or have been in contact with him. I had him make me two rigs a few years ago, and sent him money to make another in August of this year. I've tried for months to get in touch, left messages on the phone, emails, and even sent him a letter two weeks ago with no response. I would be thankful for any information.

You're still in The Leather Shop. You may not have gotten any response if no one knows the answer to your question. I know I sure don't have the answer for you. If anyone has the information you need, perhaps they will pm you with that. I sure hope it works out for you.

Beautiful work, Skeet. It looks like an original rig from the 1800's.  8)

Hi

I made this knife and sheath for a lady that I work with.  She bakes a Red Velvet snowman cake in a form, ices it with white icing, names it something like "Marie Antoinette" or "William Wallace" and then beheads it before we eat it.  I've been working on this setup for 3 years.  I originally intended to bead the snowman, but well that was beyond my patience level.  The knife is a Track of the Wolf Cumberland Bowie with Ivory Micarta grips and a brass bolster.

I tried several times to carve a decent pine branch over the snowman's head, but they all looked weird.  I'll work more on it next year.  I have a similar kitchen knife that I'm working on for a friend from work with the same style sheath but a more traditional rose pattern.  I managed to do the alternating sinew colors by tying the two pieces together and pulling the knot towards the middle layer of the sheath.

That's certainly a novel idea. Looks like you definitely had fun with this one. Cool sheath.

Thanks, I had fun with it.  The Sheath keeps the knife locked in pretty well.  The leather for the two belt loops was thinner than I should have used and is bent at too much an angle.  I did MUCH better with the holes for the sinew, but not even close to professional.  I figured that beading would be much easier and I had to LEARN carving for this sucker.  I plan to work on floral stuff for a year or so and see if I can  make myself a few holsters.

Thanks
