I've been wanting to do this for some time - modify my duluth rambler to attach my fiskars hatchet. been thinking how I want to do it. I finally decided on a very minimalist approach. I never sewed before, so I had to pickup a heavy duty stitching awl and learn how to use it. This is the first thing I did. I left the strap uncut so far, because I may want to also use this for the trekking poles. At any rate, I think it needs another to secure the bottom of the hatchet. Guess thats next.
