Mini Wallet URA-02 bought in 2014. This is bulletproof

That is looking great…

Always wish had picked one of those up. They were made by Manifold I think?

Couldn't find a better place to post, so older thread it is!
I've had my Mr. Lentz biker wallet for a couple years now and like it so much I decided to get my son one. Took a couple shots to show how the natural veg leather ages. I've been through a few homemade wallet straps/tethers over the years but this one is my favorite with solid brass and deer hide. I posted a while back in waywt but thought I'd share the comparison shots here.

Agreed. I drunkenly bought a new Stock and Barrel wallet last night. I’ll post here as the old one will be relevant.

[WhiskeySandwich]

@Matt drunken purchases are the ones made with the most passion lol def looking forward to seeing it!

X-Posted in wallets as well…

Stock and Barrel from Utah. The bi fold Ive had for years. The trucker wallet is new. Same leather…

Love the way this patch is looking after 12 washes. I don't have any specialist leather cream/conditioner, so apply a light coat of E45 cream after every wash. This may be blasphemy to leather aficionados, but it's started looks much healthier since I began this practice.

Patches on the 14ozers

I wanted to share this card case I made for my wife a while back. It’s a heavier weight natural hide that has close to a decade of wear. Look at that shine!

[Mizmazzle]

@Anesthetist damn man. That thing is gorgeous!

[Anesthetist]

@Mizmazzle what’s funny is how I always obsess over leather treatment and this one hasn't been treated since I made it!

[Mizmazzle]

@Anesthetist that says a lot, dude! All that constant rubbing and friction taking it in and out of pockets etc is like a constant polishing act it seems.

I really like how you created that deep pocket with a side wall. I’d like to learn how to do that. I’m just starting my leather craft hobby.

@Mizmazzle someone w a lot more experience like @seawolf could give you way better advice but I used a form to make pattern. I think I glued together a fat stack of spent gift cards
