    Default i need birch bark help

    im trying to get a few pointers on how to make a birch bark sheath.

    im left handed so every sheath i buy is backwards when i wear it on a belt.

    i thought this might be a good way to fix that problem and learn a thing or two at the same time.

    any info would help.

    thanks,
    Bladen

    Cut the bark in even strips about 1-2" wide. Soak in water for some time, over night. and just weave them in to a sheath.

    NCO - That is just about awesome. I really like that. Very nice.

    Bladen - Here's a short how to. It's not detailed but might give you some ideas on the bark.
