A little while ago i was on my quest for a good leather utility belt pouch to carry a few things which would accompany my bark river golok with mikro canadian II piggy backed onto a baldric setup from sharpshooter.
after some time searching and with the help of some forumites, i stumbled across leather smith designs. they are a company based out of Nova Scotia and specialize in hand crafted leather work of all sorts. They make guitar straps, coin purses, knife sheaths as well as a slew of other amazing things.
After browsing around their website i came across what i believed to be the perfect leather utility belt pouch.
this is the medium leather belt pouch offered by Leather Smith Designs. The specs from the website are:
# Black or brown leather
# Two sturdy belt loops
# Approximately 5 1/2 inches wide X 3 1/2 inches high X 1 inch deep
there is also the option to get the pouch personalized with lettering for only an additional 7 bux canadian.
the total cost of the pouch was $28.98 and i figured what the heck it was worth it. Boy was i not disappointed.
after placing my order and selecting the shipping method (i paid a little extra to get it express post), i received 3 very professional emails. i received one immediately after ordering stating that my order has been received, another one later stating that my order has been processed and was now queued and the last one saying that it was now in the process of being made.
the total time between placing my order, having it made and shipped was not even a week. I placed my order on the 9th of January and it made it here today on the 15th.
when i opened the well packaged parcel i was pleasantly surprised at what was held instore.
here are some pics:
so far i've thrown in a large zip loc bag, some para-cord, my swiss army one hand trekker, fire steel, a signal mirror, and a bic lighter. this kit is to supplement my kit which i have in my pack and these are items which i will reach for first and most frequently before the things i pull out of my pack. i plan to make a psk out of two altoids tins as it fits very nicely into the pouch and will post more pics later.
i highly recommend getting some leather from these folks. www.leathersmithdesigns.com
