Nice work!
are the belt straps wide/long enough to accommodate a 3" wide belt?

Hi Harlequin, the belt loops start life nine inches long, they are doubled and stitched for an inch and a half, so yes they should accommodate a 3" belt.

Thats a beauty Leon - really nice design.
I'm sorely tempted!

Essentialy Red it is the same as the ones that I make for Roger Harrington in design. The main differences are the dye, the toggle and the sinew.
It stands 6" high x 6.5" wide and 2" deep or for those of us that use metric 150mm x 162.5mm x 50mm.
The belt loops should accomodate a 3" or 75mm belt.

A lovely shape and design though - could you give me the wxdxh please Leon? I'm resisting like crazy but I do like it a lot. Is the toggle antler?

The toggle is synthetic bone, I normally use antler, but I got hold of four of these toggles and the colour goes well with it.
Cheers Swyn.

You're no slouch on the leatherwork yourself mate. I would try to make it cheaper, but the materials and time (each one takes a day to make), although this one actually took a little less.
Leon....Thats lovely work there mate.....
Hi Leon-1.
PP sent this morning to you.
There is also a very genuine reason for purchasing this lovely item. My old pouch finally fell apart at the Spring Moot and I was lucky to find out early enough and so not loose the contents.
Cheers from Swyn.
Swyn, thanks again, I'll get it in the post today.:)

I am not promising anything, but there maybe another up for grabs in the not too distant future, same design and colour (they were both dyed and cut at the same time). If it comes out like that one did I'll post it.

Really is nice....would prefer a real antler tine though - that would be the only possible improvement!

I think for me a simple press stud - possible?

Yes it is possible, I think two press studs in a line and possibly a slightly lengthened tab would be the best bet, but we would have to talk about it possibly throw together a couple of drawings first:).
Before I dig myself a massive hole I will say that I have an order to make that is reasonably substantial (20 sheaths and ten belts), before I could take on any other work.There will be one of these appear on here later this evening, if I get my butt in gear, that will be the same as the one I made that Swyn has. I also have 2 seperate commissions for work as well.
That means that I will be tied up for about a week before I can get going on anything else.
I had a nice surprise in the post this morning.
It is perfect for my needs.
Leon-1 you have a pm re this.
Thanks from Swyn.

a week! :eek: - 20 sheaths, 10 belts and 2 commisions!!!!!!! - that sounds like a good 2 months work for me! (at least!)
- mucho respecto mato! :You_Rock_
Thanks Graham, sometimes it is a little quicker to work in batches, however your fingers get a little sore.:rolleyes:
Right guys as mentioned earlier there is another one, the dimensions are the same (6 x 6.5 x 2 inches) here is the picture of it now that it has been waxed. It is effectively the same pouch, but as with all things hand made it has minor differences.

Cost is as per the previous pouch £45 + RMSD @ £4.70.
I have since found that RMSD has gone up, but I am not quibbling over pennies, thanks for any interest,
Leon.:)

I think this is probably the one and only time I've been the first one in on something like this, usually i'm the last one to know :lmao:
Hurrah!
Now... to offload my existing pouch... I wonder if my darling girlfriend could use one :naughty:
Hi leon,
I was wondering where you get the synthetic bone from? I was planning to have a go at making a pouch of my own, so any help on where to get this from would be much appreciated
cheers

Hi Mark, the synthetic bone toggles actually come from my local haberdashery, they have three toggles up for grabs and the others were not fit for purpose, but these are pretty much suited to the task and they look pretty good.
Drop me a PM and we'll chat.:)

Joe, my pleasure mate, hope you enjoy:)
Well here we go with another one:).
It's made from 2.4mm veg tanned leather, stitched with synthetic sinew, the CD case is a triple cd and it's there for scale (it's something we can all relate to as far as size is concerned).

I would like £35 for the pouch and £4.75 for the RMSD, I will send by other post (first or second class signed for if you PM me) and payment through PayPal.
Thanks for looking.
Just received my version of the first design and I'm over the moon with it!
