[MT606]

A while back I saw a thread somewhere about a leather worker/teacher/craftsman that was from Durham ? Can someone point me in his direction please?

thanks

I'd guess that'd be Eric_Methven, he certainly fits the description anyway

Stuart.

would anyone in the county durham/cumbria area be able to make me some equipment and snow shoe straps/buckles?

I believe Luckylee on here is down your way and I would highly recommend him.

his location says Birmingham.....

Does this leather guy make knife sheaths etc? Perhaps a top to a simple wooden sheath?

Oops sorry my bad. Yes its West Mids. I should know as I sent stuff to him

Yes ceryni he makes knife sheaths and he does a damn fine job too. There are quite a few other leathersmiths on here that do commissions. Have a look through some of the older posts and see who can make what and contact whoever you feel is best quality or value for money etc.

Thanks mate, I will do exactly that once my knives are on the way!
Has anyone on here got a website? Easier than tracking down on a public forum!

You need to make ten posts before your membership becomes properly activated, it's an automatic thing to help combat fake accounts
