Our sheaths are constructed from vegetable oil tanned leather<br />
and are ready to be shaped to your knife. The following steps will<br />
help you form this sheath. The sheath is very thirsty, so do not wet<br />
until necessary.<br />
Items to assemble ahead of time: hairdryer, plastic wrap or<br />
floor wax if knife is carbon steel, leather dye, if desired, neatsfoot<br />
oil and wool swabs for applying the oil.<br />
Compare the sheath to your knife and be sure they can be fitted<br />
together. Handle end should extend from top of sheath (pouch type)<br />
about 1-1/4” on smaller knives and 1-1/2” to 2” on larger knives.<br />
Hands must be clean. Hold the sheath under a cold water<br />
faucet and allow water to flow over and inside the entire sheath.<br />
This takes about one minute. Pour out excess water. Push knife into<br />
the sheath as far as possible without cutting through the bottom of<br />
the sheath. Do not force knife tip through the end of sheath, and<br />
do not hold tip of sheath or force against any part of your body,<br />
because one could cut through the leather and cut oneself. Knife<br />
should now be very tight in the wet sheath. If the blade is carbon<br />
steel, then it should be protected with plastic wrap or floor wax<br />
(not buffed off) to prevent oxidation (rust) due to water exposure.<br />
Now that the knife is securely inside the sheath, begin to form<br />
the sheath to fit the knife by rubbing with your fingers around the<br />
blade portion, guard and/or finger groves. Form around any shape<br />
that can be used to hold knife inside the sheath. The idea is to<br />
mold the leather to fit very tightly around the knife so that it will not<br />
fall out of the sheath when it is being worn on the belt.<br />
It is helpful if another person can hold a hair dryer about<br />
one foot away from the sheath while it is being shaped. Mold the<br />
sheath until the natural color begins to return and some stiffening<br />
of the leather begins. Remove the knife from the sheath and store<br />
safely. Again mold the same area as before, and go over the areas<br />
disturbed when you removed the knife from the sheath. Be sure to<br />
keep the sewn edge straight and open the belt loop slightly. When<br />
sheath looks like it is formed as you wish, then hang it in an area<br />
so that it will not be disturbed until completely dry and hard. A few<br />
hours in the sun or even hanging from an air vent over night should<br />
allow it to dry completely.<br />
Sheath will now be stiff and ready to dye with leather dye, or<br />
simply to color and oil with neatsfoot oil. Apply four heavy coats<br />
of neatsfoot oil with a wool swab or cotton ball. These four coats<br />
may be applied at one time. Again, allow sheath to dry at least 6<br />
hours. If color is too light, just add more neatsfoot oil to darken.<br />
If waterproof seal is desired, then add a heavy coat of mink oil or<br />
snow seal. The knife should be carried, but not stored inside the<br />
sheath.<br />
