Very cool! Nice work. Yeah once you use one of those card wallets.....all I use anymore. My bifold is in the gunsafe with all the stuff I thought i needed to carry around. I've been a card wallet guy for 3/4 years now.
Those are just rockin!! I too like the contrast between the chestnut and the natural. Did ya split the bridle leather? Like that clutch. See that creaser along both sides of the strap and along the edge of the flap of that prototype would just put it over the top. I like the range marks on it. I've found bout 50% of folks like em and about 50% don't
Thank you I really appreciate the kind words! I ordered the bridle leather from District Leather Supply and they had it for sale already split anywhere from 1 oz to the full thickness. They sell full hides or you can get it in 8" x 18", 4" x 18", or 12" x 24" pieces. I ordered two 8" x 18" pieces just to try it out and see if I like it a few months ago. I agree on the creaser; I'm probably going to order one today just not sure what brand to go with. When I make stuff that I'm going to carry around and use/test a new design I always look for the range marks. I like them a lot and I think it brings some character to the piece.
