From basic leatherworking techniques to the professional-level tips
you need to make your project its best, this how-to book will walk

the first sketch to completing the final leather treatment, is
explained in detail, with extensive step-by-step photographs and
templates. A general introduction to sheath making, basic
information about tools, and a glossary of technical terms are also
included. This book gives you the know-how to make these two
sheaths, and also serves as a manual for developing others of your
own design.
