Finished Sheath

I received this knife yesterday in the mail, and after dinner I went down to my shop and just started looking at what type of sheath I could make for this nicely done "Long Hunters knife" done by Kyle Willyard of Old Dominion Forge. Well one idea lead to another and after a snow storm today, I came up with this finished sheath.
