    Good content Walter. I like that wood heat deflector. I’ve always used a lighter which can be a PITA. I’ll try that approach on my next sheath. Thanks

    Could you tell me a little more about that finishing wheel that you used? The super wheel? Thank you walter!

      I wonder the same. If it's just a name brand of a convolute abrasive wheel?

      It's literally called the super wheel they sell them at pops knife supply in four different grit levels I posted a question as to which grit he is using for this application.

    Never thought of using a T shirt press. Was that parchment paper you had laid on top of the Kydex when they were finished heating?

    "CLAMP THE SNOT OUT OF IT". This is a construction terminology for put lots of pressure on this mother. I am going to wager Walt has had a couple sighting fluids with the boys after work. My kind of American.

    Where do you get the hardware from and what size is it?

    What grit is that super wheel ultra, super, very, or fine? Curious if it'll work better than my homemade Scotch Brite wheels, they definitely look more robust...

    No offense, brother, but the shit looks too bulky and there’s no character to it. You should use a little bit more imagination just to make it more prettier but overall no questions works fine.
