Leather Knife Sheath, Kydex And Sheepskin Lined
Kydex and Sheepskin Lined Sheath, …say what? I know, here I go again. I was contacted by a customer in California that had just purchased a Busse Combat Sarge 7. Now, as this is a $400.00 plus dollar knife the customer wanted a really nice piece of leather to show it off with, plus a way to keep it very well protected. Hence a combination leather, kydex and sheepskined lined piece of work. The outer leather shell of the sheath is constructed of 4-5 oz. Horsehide that has been dyed a medium cognac brown and is finished with Atom Wax. There is an attached loop for a Swedish Firesteel Army model. The belt loop is designed for a high hip carry on the right side or can be used for a left side cross draw. The edges have been hand burnished to a very high polish. Inside the sheath is a 2mm Kydex shell that is lined with sheep skin. The sheepskin is impregnated with renwax to condition the blade as drawn and to allow for a completely silent draw. The Kydex has been molded to create an indent at the base of the knife handle to firmly hold the knife in place. Simple huh. Nope, complicated to make but beautiful in its execution. This kydex lining design can be created for any sheath knife. The indent in the kydex to secure the knife tighter in the sheath totally depends on the knife design itself. However, many forms of attachment can be had so don't feel left out if an indent wont work with your particular blade. Call me, we'll chat about it.

Dragonthorn Leatherworks manufactures custom/bespoke leatherwork, one piece at a time, one stitch at a time. Our pieces are unique and attention to detail is paramount. I specialize in smaller leather items but build just about anything as long as it is important to you. Bags, briefs, cellphone cases, tablet cases, guitar straps, holsters, knife sheaths and such… You may order any of the pieces shown on Maker-Marketplace.com as well as any item shown on my website at https://dragonleather.net. I can make any item as you see it, customize it to your wishes or we can create something completely unique. Take a look at our work, give your ultimate leather dream some thought, then let me know, we'll build something special together.
Dragonthorn Leatherworks has been and remains as one of the premier global custom leather smiths since 1999. We have accomplished this through extreme attention to detail, world class customer service and, obviously, strong knowledge and skill. We are not inexpensive, nor do we rush through a project simply to get one off the bench in order to start another. True custom leatherwork is very unique and more of an art than a craft although both elements are combined in our work. Our communication levels during the construction of a project remain a strong suit of ours and may border on “way too much information”. However, in order to ensure that a customer receives precisely what they wish for it is necessary to communicate on a consistent basis and make you feel part of the team. I invite you to read the column "What is Custom Leatherwork” to better understand what custom leatherwork truly is. The brief article can be found on my website at this web address: https://dragonleather.net/custom-leatherwork/ Additional reviews may be read at https://dragonleather.net/testimonials/
Please feel free to look around the website and enjoy the many items we have developed for clients around the world. Take a read at the testimonials to see what these customers have to say about our work and working with us. Give us a shout if/when you have an idea you’d like to bounce off of us. You may be surprised at what we come up with. Thanks, Dave

For Leather Knife Sheath, Kydex And Sheepskin Lined5.0Dave was fantastic to work with and provided timely communication every step of the way until the sheath was completed. The sheath itself is truly a work of art...Unbelievable craftsmanship - you REALLY do get what you pay for here. A little pricey? yes, but WELL worth it. Liked it so much that I will be working with Dave again soon to make this sheath for another knife. I can only speak for his knife sheaths, but I am sure all his leather work is exceptional - truly a masterclass in design and execution. Thanks again Dave!!
