Thanks for all the words of encouragement - now I'm just wondering how to finish it off. I know I can't do any real tooling (that takes an artist), but the large plain face just begs for something to be on it. I think I'm going to work on some designs on some spare leather and see if I can come up with something simple, yet attractive. Then again, I may just leave well enough alone except for the dyeing "The enemy of good is better..."
P.S. So what do people use to "seal" their sheaths with?
