A new craftsman has opened a leatherworking shop near my home, and I am going to switch my standard sheaths to his brand from JRE. His name is Robert Fetner, and works under the business name Bandido Leather. Please welcome him to my forum. Dylan and I are going to benefit from having a local guy we can drop a knife off with, and have a custom sheath very quickly. Also, as stated above he is going to make a budget line of sheaths for me. I think his work really compliments my line well. I plan to sell his sheaths at $30 (a real value for a handmade sheath) when purchased with a knife. I will not be re-selling his work without a knife purchase. You may contact Robert if you would like to get one of his sheaths, but please be aware that my price is set as combined with a knife, and to buy a single sheath, it will likely be a bit more $. It is exactly the same right now with JRE. If you call JRE to get a Fiddleback sheath from them, you don't pay $25.
His contact 411 is as such:
This is a pic Vs the JRE sheath these two models are going to replace.
This move is not an indication of anything between JRE and myself, but simply my attempt at convenience and supporting a local craftsman, and hopefully soon, a GA Guild member.
