True Artistry


These amazing two knife sheaths were created by J Drewes, a knife maker from Minnesota and I had the priviledge to have both in my hand.

The fins and Frog feet are thinned and sculpted to look very real and yet the leather looks very strong and durable indeed - here is indeed a leather artist who enjoys what he is doing....
