        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.

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

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

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

                                            You were right about that leather, Zach.  A lot of character in there.  And the work is beautiful, too.
