Recognizable leather work?

I've seen Paul Long's work out in public and instantly thought, 'that looks like a Paul Long sheath'. Don't think I've ever had that thought with other people's work. I've seen other sheaths and thought they look familiar, but not until I learn the maker does the familiarity make sense. Paul's work has a signature 'style' .. to me.
 
The saying goes 'old leathersmiths never die, they just leave a lasting Impression...'

several folks have immediate recognizable traits and there are some that have emulated them to the point you have to look close, for most we want to share the knowledge and keep that spark alive to create things and that's the best part of leather work or knife making, to me at least.
