He's already done it!
Look at the straps on the purse at middle-left.

green thread on black canvas....
So, got any free samples?
Like, ones in wholly unsuitable colour combinations that no true bushcrafter would ever buy, like.... oh, I don't know, let's pick two colours at random... say, green and black? If so I'll take them off your hands and relieve you of the burden of them.
I'm generous like that.
Angst,
Loving these, especially in the grey.
Have you thought about making a satchel/man-bag, kinda like the Zippo one that John Fenna reviewed? I've no idea how much work it would involve to be honest but I reckon in the grey with those chunky black buckles and seat-belt strap it'd look awesome, and be a fair bit more waterproof than most of that style of bag seem to be to boot.
Great work fella.
hiya....ta for your compliments....
just had a look at the fenna-blokes review....nice looking bag...it'll be a while before i can pull off something quite like that....and when i do it wont be ANYWHERE near 35 quid dude....these will have been knocked up in a country where the average weekly wage is a good thrashing with a length of rusty barbed wire....
i think its quite incredible that its that cheap.....i'd charge more than that just for the leatherwork to go on it...

Well - if you want a review of your gear...
I am only a PM away
I can't find anything on this my bushcraft book... maybe it's time for the great bushcraftuk colour poll?
Green is official, it's stated by the Green Man himself officially at 6:40in this video

Mate, I wasn't suggesting you'd be selling them for £35! The style reminds me a bit of the Mission Workshop stuff (which I really like) so was thinking if you could do them they might be a similar sort of price - £120ish. Don't even know if that is feasible to be honest, I imagine they have the benefit of economies of scale, production lines and the like.
Just to reiterate, I really am quite ignorant in all this having never made so much as handkerchief myself! Didn't mean to cause any offence.
