hi lads, hope you are all ok, sorry for not being on so much just lately have been so busy, with the knives and the leather.
this bag was commissioned, by a customer, and to be honest pushed my skill level, this is completely hand made, no machines, no drill all by needle pricking iron and awl.
there was a lot of stitching i can you.
he asked me to make the bag, and said roughly what he was looking for, so of to the drawing board i went
what i wanted to achieve when designing this was a sort of retro but classy bag, not sure i achieved hat but i tried to make what i had in me mind.
this was boxed stitched to be a little different to most bags out there, and to get the look i wanted.
the strap is a little different too, i made this so that you can take the shoulder pad if required, and that you can also adjust the strap, rather that just a sewed in slider like most bags have.
any way hope you like it

Lee, that bag is a masterpiece! That stitching is as good as anything I've ever seen, and I've had a lifetime working with top class harness and saddlery. Fair play to you, you're a true craftsman..............atb mac
