No sword should be without one! Now you can make your own sheath. I used this technique to make one for a modified DCUC Deathstroke sword. Those props now belong to my custom Trunks.

This technique can also be used to make a sheath for daggers, knives, and other bladed weapons. In fact, with enough creativity, you should also be able to use this method to make holsters for firearms and even for fantasy weapons.

The pictures used in this tutorial depict a sheath being made for a diamond bladed sword, but can be modified for other types of swords. Another great idea is to use a rectangular styrene 'box tube' that are sold at various hobby stores.

Needed Parts and Recommended Tools:

-0.5mm Styrene Sheeting (Plastruct was used in this tutorial)
-Straight Edge Ruler (Metal highly recommended)
-X-Acto Knife with plenty of spare blades
-Cutting Mat
-Side Cutters
-Super Glue (Gel Control highly recommended, I used Loctite)
-Sculpting Materials of your choice, along with sculpting tools that you prefer to use
-Sandpaper (Various Grades)
-Respirator (For Sanding)
-Your Favorite Paints and Brushes

Thank you so much for checking out this tutorial, and I hope that you have found it helpful!

And a big thank you to Jin Saotome. Without all of your tutorials that I found on your website, I never would have learned how to customize, or found my way here to figurerealm.
