the big chief 3,099 Posted November 11, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 11, 2014 then simply repeat it make the lines up to where you want the d ring but make sure there is a bit of gap or its a twat to sew lol use the priking iron like so then sew again using the method of starting 3 holes back sew to the top then back stich do all this on both sides the strap is long now so you need to measure where the holes are and cut what you don't need off the pics a bit shit i was too close with the flash all cut then finish off the end by dyeing it then burnesh then edge kote then when all this is done wax the collar or whatever you have made i use a old sadlers blend wax from unicorn leather just put a couple of coats on the wipe the rest off and the collar is done I just love it when people share their hard won knowledge.

the big chief 3,099 Posted November 12, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 12, 2014 Thank you If anyone tries this you are best doing a gh style collar they are alot simpler to do the sheath build will start to day I know loads of you have midnights knives so a custom sheath will be just the ticket Quote Link to post Share on other sites
the big chief 3,099 Posted November 12, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 12, 2014 Plz don't think you can build a collar in 10 mins you can't it takes a good while and don't rush it or you will make mistakes like I did on this one trying to get this tutorial done take your time it will look far better in the end Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Peakhound 0 Posted November 14, 2014 Report Share Posted November 14, 2014 It's virtually impossible now to find quality leatherwork, or to get good alterations done... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
