Completed Scabbard
« on: 2014-02-24, 01:58:06 »
Attached are some pics of my finished scabbard and belt.  This is for my Arms and Armor 13th Century Sword.  I redid the grip recently too.  I posted a pic a couple of weeks ago of the undyed leather cover.  I used light brown dye on the scabbard and ox blood on the belt.  I'm very please with how it came out.  Now I'm planning a proper scabbard for another blade.
