    Applying a couple of coats of Atom wax (yes, I spelled that correctly) to the raw hide should make it more resistant to water damage. I use it for my leather work and it holds up very well.

    One thing to remember though is apply it to all sides and edges of the material before stitching or riveting it together.

    Now I'm curious if it will work, I may have to go to the store later.

    Okay, I'm confused. Does the Atom wax work or not? Anything like bikini wax?

    I know it works for normal leather, but I never tried it on rawhide.

    Okay, now I get it. Thanks for the clarification.

    You can also make a knife sheath out of a peice of PPV pipe by *heating the PPC pipe until it is warm enought to become moldable. Place the PPC pipe between to flat surfaces and press downward until you can slide your knife blade in the sheath and hold that position until the PPC pipe cools.

    You can press the end closed beyound the point or just leave it open. When making objects for use in wet areas I always leave a drain hole in the lowest portion of the sheath or holster.

    This type of sheath is great for packing your knifes in an area where if the blade cuts through a sheath, like inside a pack, it may cause you or your equipment damage

    * you can heat the PPC piping in an oven or with a hand held heat source. I have an electric heat gun that works just fine.

    NEVER EVER NEVER heat up PVC OR PPC piping!!!! these plastics give of fumes when heated that can kill you in minutes!!! ask any firefighter!
