Mahogany Leather for sheaths, veg tanned 300 x 600 mm

Vegetable tanned leather for sheaths, 30 x 60 cm (Dyed deep red-brown mahogany)

High quality Vegetable tanned leather, approx 3 mm thick from Italy. Coloured a beautiful reddish brown mahogany.

These pieces are cut into 30 x 60 cm in size and will be enough for at least a couple of standard sized sheaths.

This leather is normal tooling leather ( veg tanned)  and will stay softer and more pliable.

The leather should be sealed and can be dyed. 

 The sheath can be made by folding the leather around the finished knife, and using contact cement to glue it up.

Then punch holes with an awl (or drill holes) and sow the sheath together before cutting off the excess leather and dying it.

The belt loop is either attached from a separate strip, or made as part of the sheath and folded back behind the sheath and sown on.
