The purpose of this post is not to show off my work but to see if any members would be interested in a detailed pictorial on how I make saya. I am just about to remake one so it is a good time to do it.
I live in an apartment so have no access to either a workshop or power tools. The picture below shows my tools and workbench.
All saya are 2piece made from a single board that is split into the 2 pieces which makes the seam almost invisible.
If there is any interest out there for a tutorial or want to discuss any part of saya making please speak up.

Crappy photo but you can see the fit of the knife and note the seams are very hard to see.
