Thank you Robert. This one took a longer time due to the carvings.

Yes, the carvings on wooden scabbards - they are carved with carving tools or a knife. As far as I know, one can not "punch" into wood like that into leather - wood is not soft enough. IT would be very difficult (if not impossible) to emboss wood.

Some of yours may have been shallowly carved. I do a little deeper carving myself.
