Leatherwork for Frontier First Heritage

One of my favorite small fixed blades is the Blind Horse Knives Frontier First Heritage. 1/8″ thick, sambar scales, D2 steel – it’s an awesome little knife and is so nice that I am halfway scared to use it. As a left handed individual, I am just about guaranteed to have sheath issues. It’s a fact of life for us lefties. This problem isn’t the reason I started doing my own leatherwork, but it sure has been a handy side benefit!

The inverted neck sheath isn’t the most popular method of carry that you might see. Some people don’t like the idea of the blade being pointed back up at them in case they should fall. Some folks just don’t like anything hanging around their neck. I can relate to that; having anything on my neck when I am working or sweating aggravates me, but for daily general carry, neck knives are good for me. If I’m sweating, the knife just gets moved to my pocket instead.
