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.
