Shoe leather from some old houseshoe moccasins is not the best by a long shot. (if it even is real leather?) I hate to throw away a good usable piece of anything so it's about time to make another sheath for the pocket knife. Nothing fancy but it saves wear and tear on the pockets.I've had that pocket knife (Shrade Walden) for over 50 years. Sentimental value, you know?
