Made some more progress. While the knife was still wrapped in cellophane the sheath was coated with a product called Leather Sheen. It's a acrylic, brush on coating that seals the leather (keeps the dye from running) but remains flexible (will not crack). Next up is a little minor touch up, sharpening and lanyards for the knife and firesteel. I'm pleased with the results on the sheath. The bulk is kept down without the welt and as you can see (hopefully) the blade will not come in contact with the stitching. I tried some pictures in the shade and bright sun.

Dang, man, that's pretty snazzy. Is that a dog print inlay?

The center pin on the knife? It's a homemade mosaic pin - Crashpaw.
Yeah, yeah. That's the one. I figured you made it. It's a bit small in the pic but it looked like a paw print. Crashpaw. I like it. I just hope it doesn't meet up with a Crashcat.

Auction time is approaching. I'd like to shoot for the auction opening on Monday, November 7th and remain open for seven days. If you are making one for the auction, time to get busy. Post your progress in this thread.
I'll be getting mine started soon. Just got my shop delivered, need to build a roof for it and get the tools sorted. Buying a new grinder here next week.
I would like to raffle mine off to give more people a chance to get one on the cheap.
I had a compass, but without a map, it's just a cool toy to show you where oceans and ice are.
I'll Re-Shoot Pics Of the Knives and the Sheaths I Made for them to Get Better and Clearer Photos Of the Items .
I'll Still Be Offering 3 Knives With Sheaths For My Part.
To Fail Is to Learn from your Mistakes and Advanced off of that Failure.
I thought about making something. Then, I saw ya'lls.
Rebel you should make one. The knife I got from you at the last Jamboree is one of my prized possessions.
Just bumping this up. I will start the auction for the one I made a week from today. I'll start a thread in the General Chat section (and provide a link to it in this thread). The other auctions will be run by the members that made knives.
Mine is ready for HT.

I finally have mine hardened. I'll draw the temper back tonight.
I'll not be posting too many WIP pics as I'm too busy to mess with it but I'll post pics of the done knife and then the sheath.
I'll be raffling it off. 20 slots at $5 a slot sounds about right.
