Very neat & tidy, nice. What wood is that, I'm wild guessing at elder?
My daughter asked for her own whistle (the first is already going to be gifted) so I've made another smaller one today.
A bit of a tangent, I've got identical looking fabric to yours pictured - am using it to make prototype sheaths for the Mora Companion & 106 my partner will use for her Forest School stuff, as well as for the hori-hori... not sure where to source proper thick leather (or ideally non-animal equivalent that is cut & puncture resistant) though if you or anyone else reading may know?
I use veg tanned cowhide to make sheaths. I buy sheets from a leather supplier and soak it to mould it around the knife.
Ideally you want something with some substance, 2 or 3 mm thick. When it dries it is very hard and cut resistant.
