    Michael I fixed my Knife pocket by driving a nail through the leather with the head on the outside. Then cut off the point on the inside and bend it through 90 degrees. Pop the head on the anvil and tap the shank with a nailing hammer to tighten it up.

    that's very nice way of saying I didn't hit my stamp enough. Sometimes you don't notice those things until after you taking a picture look at it. I guess I'll just say I did that as a traction device!;-)
