Introduction: How to Make a EDC Knife Sheath
Today I will show you how to make an every day carry (edc) knife sheath
Supplies
leather
leather needle
wax thread
ruler
clips
wooden or rubber mallet
leather punch
sharp scissor
optional: pencil
paper
Step 1: Marking Your Design
Put your knife on your leather, and fold the leather over the knife. Then make sure that there is 1 inch of slack at the end. Then take a couple of clips and put one at the top ,one at the the side and, one at the bottom.
Step 2: Punching the Holes
Take out the knife from the sheath and get the punch. Draw a line where you want to punch the holes, and use that as a guideline. When that is done start to punch a hole, and take out the clip if needed. Punch the hole and then put the clip back.
Step 3: Sewing
Thread your needle and make a knot at the end of the thread. The stitch I am using is a saddle stitch. You can look it up on how to do it. Then using that stitch sew the whole thing, and tie a knot at the end of the last hole. Then lightly tap the mallet on the thread.
Step 4: Cut the Excess
Take your scissors cut off the leather that is attached to the sheath.
Step 5: Your Finished
Now you have a knife organizer in your pocket, I hope you like it and have a nice day
