I think I'll try and get one made, once my Custom shop 112 arrives.
with *minimal tools* with a lighter weight leather

That'll be nice Rappy, I'd not go TOO light on the leather thickness, while it might form easier, it can also wear out faster and possibly not retain it's shape near as well, since it's thin.

Thanks for the tip, I'll might go for 5 or 6 oz, my belt has a swiss champ on it already. :thumbup:

This is a bit more detailed step by step, also see this Thread for some info regarding the tools and some recommended fellows that are excellent leathersmiths.

Beautiful work. Thank you for sharing.
