Birch bark knife sheath
« on: September 03, 2017, 08:19:53 am »
Tried some birch bark instead of leather to make a sheath for a small trap spring knife I had. Also pictured is a match case I made. Came out ok but would have been better had the bark been fresher.

Very nice.  Birch is a bit hard to come by out here, but related to aspen, I think, might try to peel some of that to try.
