I am wanting to maybe make a large leather knife roll for storing pieces I want to keep but I’m kind of at a loss for how to design something practical. Most knife roll designs seem aimed at chef knives and I’m wanting something that will accommodate the blades that I am actually creating.
Came up with a design I thought was going to work, but when I started chopping up the leather, I realized it was going to be a lot more complex than I thought…
My original idea was to just have a two sided square with flat pockets, sewn onto either side for blades to slide into like a bunch of sheaths kinda… then it could either be hung by the center, kind of like saddlebags, or folded over and rolled up for transport…I didn’t take into account how much the leather will have to deform around the blades, even if each pocket section is much wider than the knife it will hold…
Ideas??
