    Default Tramontina Golok Sheath

    This week I was able to move ahead on another unfinished Tramontina modification. Here in Brazil nobody sells a golok so I decided to make one about a year and a half ago. I took a 17 inch heavy bird’s head handled machete and cut it back to 14 inches. This gave me the forward weighted feel I was looking for. I wanted a blade that was easy to carry on the belt yet hit like a 16 inch machete.

    The blade has been begging for a sheath. Yesterday I solved that problem. The sheath is pretty simple and reflects the high standard of tools I have for leatherworking (Mark 1 Eyeball, steel ruler, Skookum Bushtool, hole punch, 2 needles, sandpaper). It’s not professional looking but it is fully functional and will see plenty of time in the bush.

    I treated the sheath with beeswax and most likely will heat it up and retreat it, I think it can take more wax. As it is the leather is rock hard, more like a scabbard than a sheath and it holds its shape like Kydex. The blade makes a satisfying “clack” when it seats.

    Looks great, and as you say functional. The funny thing about sheaths - you can take a rudimentary sheath or a fine hand crafted sheath into the bush every day. After a couple of years you probably can't tell the difference between the two.

    Looks good to me. Nothing wrong with practical and that looks better than just practical.
