I have been doing most of my knife photos before building the sheaths. I really love making sheaths too but get too impatient to post pictures.

Here are some sheaths I made recently.

This one has some hand tooling which is simply done by going crazy with an empty ball point pen when the sheath is half wet-dry. You can make any pattern you like.

A different example.

Without the tooling.

This one is REALLY quick to do - 15minutes. Wet-moulding and drying takes 3-7 days though.

This is fake "Croc" for those who aren't allowed to import exotic skins. I send these with a letter stating that is it patterned handbag-grade cowhide.

Thanks for looking. Jason.

Very nice!

Jason -- what I like best is the fit of the sheaths to the style and intended use of the knives, tooling or no tooling.
I'd like to see the overlay continued on strap of the gents' bowie, tho, but that's just me :)

Jason, you are to be commended on your work. Neat, practical, and great eye appeal. Sandy
