Making a Wooden Scabbard

Friends, the oldegaffer site has a very interesting step by step. Poplar was recommended.

I purchased a Choora for Oriental Arms (many bows to Artzi!) and that scabbard had a very pleasant aroma, possibly cedar (?)

The process is for a European medieval sword, but the techniques may be transferable to creating scabbards and sheathes for Jambiyas and other types of blade.
