very good considering you to be an amateur in leather works .
can you describe the process that you used to mould the leather.
ps : the final look would depend upon what kind of stitches you employ.

Looks neat. A step by step procedure would benefit amateurs out here ( me inluded )

BTW - What type/quality of leather have you used.

Best.

thank you all.

didnt take pictures of the process. i complicated the process a bit and will be doing a new sheath. will do a WIP of it.
moin: its a Browning tactical hunter.
bruno, doctor: soak leather in water.it will become pliable and can be moulded.
hell_fire: its veg tanned cow hide. ask your local cobbler and he will tell you where to get it.
