I've attempted a few pieces of leatherwork so far. And in my eyes, yours looks great :).

Although, no stitching in the bottom middle? Any reason for that?

I didn't like how far the knife stuck out and I can push it out from the bottom while still in my pocket
And that's the fist thing I've stitched sine I was in scouts when I was thirteen and couldn't figure out how to keep it contiguous

I'd pay for a pocket organiser like this, not many offering out there, really
Nice work, I like it:thumbup:
 
Sure, not the prettiest leatherwork I've seen, but it looks decently put together, and ready for a long time of service. I'd say it's good to go.
 
I've never worked with leather, but I'd buy something like that. What I'd carry in it is a bit different. I'd lean more to one with only one spot for my SAK

I think yours look quite nice sir. Don't sell yourself short.

Here is my feeble attempt out of some scrap leather. I don't feel bad for saying that yours look noticeably better to me (and also I'm not offended, this was only my second attempt).

I admire ingenuity and the willingness to make something from scratch with ones own hands in order to satisfy a need. Well done :thumbup:.

The greatest craftsmen didn't start out making works of art that sell for hundreds or thousands of dollars and win all kinds of prizes, they started out making things just like yours. Through practice and trail and error, experience and knowledge are gained, and ones skill will inevitably improve.

But the bottom line is- if it works, then it works, and that's what counts. Unless it's a painting or a sculpture or some other piece of "art", function always matters more than appearance and refinement.
 
Nice job, i need to make one of these for my leatherman juice and lighter. I dont smoke, just like always having a lighter on me.
