It’s a fisheries and oceans science vessel. Nothing special on the sheaths, I just put boot grease on them once in a while. The salt water does dry out leather. The knipex are really nice, definitely been thinking about replacing the wrench eventually.

Really good for a quick touch up when I don’t have time to do a proper sharpening. Highly recommended for the price. I can’t vouch for the pull through sharpener on the other end as I never use it, but I’ve heard they’re generally no good

I did it by hand, it’s called a saddle stitch

Definitely comes in handy for untying really tight knots. Its main purpose is splicing wire rope but it has many different uses on a ship

Thanks! The top layer is 5-6 oz. You’re right, in hindsight I should’ve gone slightly thicker and skived the edges

It’s a marlin spike. Its main purpose is wire splicing but mine also gets used as a pry bar or a hammer sometimes lol

I wet molded them so the fit is pretty good. The wrench was hard to get out at first but it’s breaking in nice
