The leather sheaths have been a big hit, but they are very time consuming. I looked around and saw a machine that would help, and add a lot of pizazz to my leather work to boot! While buying leather supplies, I ran across a glowforge laser "printer". It should just be called a cnc laser cutter, because it is just varying amounts of power between cutting and engraving..... anyway I digress.....
I met a young marine about to be deployed to the middle east. I asked if he had a good knife to take to war. He replied that he just had a pocket knife. I got his address and told him to be looking for a care package in the mail. After conferring with some Marine buddies of mine, we ended up settling on two knives for the various rigours of life in the field. This is what I sent to him.....
I thought maybe his name and unit would help things from "growing legs" and walking off.
