This project convinced me there is nothing Zach is incapable of doing with leather if given proper time! Thanks again brother

One of the reasons I took up leather the first place was to make a Knife Roll for my day job. It's been a couple of years since my first attempt at a knife roll, and I'm taking another stab at it (terrible pun completely intended). It's not finished yet, but I thought I'd share a progress pic just for fun.

It's pretty much an entire side of Horween English Tan Dublin in 6/7 oz weight (heavy freakin' duty), and all of the straps are 11/12 oz Hermann Oak Bridle in London Tan. The copper bar is for support of the carrying handle, and so far, the whole thing is held together with 81 hand-hammered solid copper rivets.

It still needs closure straps and hardware, a shoulder strap, and a whole lot of burnishing.

Damn, dude, that's gonna weigh twenty pounds when it's fully loaded.  Should be bulletproof, too.

@seawolf:

….and a whole lot of burnishing.

Yeah, because it looks complete shit at the moment…..

Looking forward to it! 

@Giles:

Right? haha! It'll look sharp when it's all done

@Giles:

I didn't want to say that, because I'm a polite guy.  I'm glad you're not similarly burdened.

[seawolf]

Ha!

[seawolf]

All done! @Chris you'll be happy to know it weighs in at 6 pounds fully loaded! Not too bad

[seanocono]

Beautiful!

[Finkster]

[seawolf]

Haha! Yep, pretty much

@seanocono:

Beautiful!

Thank you!

Blimey, that's less than just one of @Jestre 's "knives" unsheathed…...
