    Looks mate. A quick point? Lower the band-saw holder for more precision. The blade won't wobble so much when lowered. :)

    I've been wanting to make myself a scabbard for a few of my swords, and having this pop up today gave me inspiration to start!

    Wish I had the wood working skill for this. I mainly do leather work and looking to replace my Viking scabbard and upon taking it to replace the leather I found the main body was made of particle board

    I've just about finished up making my first scabbard for a Type XII arming sword. I'd been saving up to buy a scabbard, but after seeing your previous video tutorials I felt comfortable enough to try it. It's definitely not perfect, but I'm pleased with what it looks like. Thank for that, and glad to see you putting out new content!

    This is very promising. Though as a reenactor and leatherworker I prefer making stitching holes with an awl; this way you don't remove material from the piece itself and once it's dry and shrinks even a tiny bit, it'll hold the stitches in place really tight. Should the thread gets damaged, you'll take a lot until you notice and the whole piece won't unmake itself, so adding a new stitch on top (starting 1 or 2cm before and stopping 1 or 2cm after the broken thread) will keep it in place.

    If you bring your blade guard closer to the wood it will make your bandsaw more accurate and easier to control.

    I have a Badger blades hand and a half I want to make a scabbard for. Has anyone heard about a scabbard being lined with oil impregnated wool to keep the blade from rusting?

  • @nivesknight
    @nivesknight Рік тому

    So the wood should be carved to the point that all of the blades angles are matched and have a perfect match or fit ...

  • @jamesouellet9769

    Where did you got those poplar plank wood ?

  • @nivesknight
    @nivesknight Рік тому

    Yea so if the scabbard is made correctly you would add oil and it would keep the blade oiled and the wood and leather won't dry out to much...

    About moisture and changes in climate. "Skallagrim" made a wooden scabbard that shrunk a while ago. What do you have to think about in order to avoid something like that?
