Embossed Alligator

This black embossed Alligator stitched over 7-8 oz oak tan looks very good. What do you think? Cliff

First I would like to say welcome to our forum and I notice your a Florida neighbor.Nice work and I like the design of the sheath too. I don't see many using embossed leathers , but I know real Alligator is real pricey.Looking forward to seeing more of your work. Dave

Thanks

Thank you both for the warm welcome. Chuck, I checked out your website and saw the most interesting and unusual pieces I have ever seen. Great work! I need to get to some of the shows to see what's out there these days. Dave, I am going to get involved with the Florida Knifemakers and will meet up with you at one of the gatherings, I'm sure. I was a commercial pilot and instructor, but had a heart attack and can't fly anymore so I am getting back into knifemaking full time again. It has been awhile since I have been to a show. I need to improve my photography and the forums here are great for that. See you guys! Cliff

Hey Cliff; Another hearty welcome to the forum from Texas. Your sheaths are extreme. Extremely well disgined. Extremely well made. Extremely neat and well finished, just like your knives. I cruised through your web site and it is really interesting. That new bowie on the home page...how much $$$ ? It is really a great looking knife. Be sure to keep us up to date on your new stuff, both leather and steel.

Paul
