New stacked leather handle

Could anyone on here rehandle an Estwing axe/hatchet?

Possibly make a leather sheath too, something like the original if possible.

If possible I'd like the same person to be able to polish and sharpen too but no problem if not, I could do that bit myself.

Can't spend a fortune but happy to pay a reasonable amount. Not in a great rush either if that helps.

It's nothing special but was given to me by my late grandfather and I rediscovered it today and it's in a pretty sorry state.

Please pm if you can help.

 

Thanks

Edd

All depends on the condition of the leather stack. I've done a few where it looked like it would need a new handle but a quick going over on the belt sander reveales its not that bad, and a good soak in leather conditioner and re-dyed and polished and they look brand new. 

Like said some good pictures would help a lot. 

I did a bowie knife with stacked leather handle, I thought the leather was a right off but managed to get it back without too much work. Well thats a lie it was very hard work rubbing in that carnauba wax
