came without handle scales so I wrapped them in leather to try to keep with the era.

them for each side instead of wrapping them. They were then pinned in place with steel pins.

scorching for effect and then pinned it in place with brass.

making supplies. .
Machete/Saber -1095 steel. I bought the blank which is hand cut and ground in the USA. Blade length is 14 1/2 inches.
I then added water buffalo handle scales which I cut and sanded to shape. Pins were cut from steel rods. I was able to cobble
together a sheath ( I definitely am not a pro!! ). I am just learning to hand sew so my stitches are not so straight. But
I did start out with a blank square of leather and turned it into a functional sheath.
