Variety of design options are availbe to customize your sheath to fit your knife and your style.Beginners and intermediate students are welcome. Please bring a knife to use for patterning. Your knife will help determine the sheath style you make. An apron or clothes that can get a little messy are recommended, as finishing work may involve stains.
- Students are suggested to either bring an apron or wear clothes that can potentially get stained as it is possible this may occur in the process of finishing projects.
