Tried a simple knife sheath. First time really working with leather on the glowforge. Love the 1mm stitching holes and the scoring. I think this will save me a lot of time prepping leather.
Did prototyping for the pattern on some thick box cardboard.
I have added the SVG if anyone else wants to have a go. Its for a blade 32mm across by about 115mm long. You should be able to stretch it a little in the new interface.
The finished sheath is very nice.
Nice work I bought the machine for this reason and it help me allot with my leather work.
Turned out awesome
That looks great! I’m working on my first real stitched leather project now, and it’s so satisfying seeing it come together!
That looks amazing!
Awesome! Great job! Is that 5 oz leather? Your stitching looks great 
Yes about 2.5mm thick
Beautiful! Showed it to my husband, and he’d like me to make him one now…
Turned out great!
This is so nice!
A simple concept executed really well. #necrogame
This came out really nice. I speak out of complete ignorance here: Does the long, narrow strip go between the sewn edges?
Very nice work.
Yes it does. It’s called a welt and used to protect stitching from the edge of the blade.
Thank you for explaining.
Hi I was wondering how you made this. I need to make some sheaths for my work knives

The original post includes the file for this sheath. It appears you simply fold and stitch - including the weld. Then you add the belt loop.
