Luxury Leather Sporting Accessories

I believe it would be sturdy enough to double as a winch strap in an emergency though any winching would likely void all warranty… LOL

I won’t promise to stop boring all of you fine people with photos but I will promise this will be the last one for the day…

The local military prep school has a yearly fundraising auction. This year I decided to donate a leather wrapped titanium flask…. It will be accompanied by a nice bottle of spirits.

I don’t know much about leather work, but these projects look amazing to me!

And that Logo nails it! I look forward to seeing more of your work

While many on here would argue one does not need their own knife on safari, being a gentleman, I would respectfully disagree….

Nice creations....I think you should use the pith helmet as logo on the blades instead of initials....bit different

That’s an excellent idea. Perhaps a limited edition

Nice, being a Rum drinker perhaps you can introduce the recruits to Bundaberg Rum.
They do offer some aged versions.
I like Pithy's, they just look traditional or remind me of safari.
Thinking on what leather accessory I might need to order.

It would be fun make something for a forum member if I can ever be of assistance….

I was just perusing the Bundaberg rum website. They have quite a few products I’d like to try. Some of their liqueurs sound nice as well. Unfortunately I’m not seeing where their products are available in the US.

@CBeck , Would you post to the EU? Belgium ?

While I don't do as much leather work as you, I have done enough to know how to be nit picky and truly judge when someone is willing to put their life into it. The easiest tell of quality is the orientation of the awl holes around a radius. So many people let the orientation go all willy nilly in order to try and make a smooth curve. I must say, yours are some of the best I have seen; I also appreciate the even thread tension, seeing puckered and soft thread nest to each other drives me batty.

Very well done, sir.
Thank you for sharing.

The Coffee and Chocolate liqueur has been around a long time but was limited to shopfront sales from the distillery for a long time.
It is really nice, easy to drink.
I like Bundaberg Rum but some find it harsh. Over the last 20 years they have had various limited release blended or aged varieties.

That was one of the liqueurs I was particularly interested in.

Having one of my favorite rum drinks tonight.

How many cartridge loops is enough? I can’t imagine needing more than five extra rounds, but I’m thinking two sets of five would give flexibility.

 

[Hunter4752001]

Better make it six. Some of our members only count by 2s.

I would propose six loops. When using a double rifle this would mean three reloads.

Then two sliders of six, one with softs , one with solids.

But others have a better idea perhaps?

I was thinking there are five fingers on one hand which would keep the confusion to a minimum. Things get complicated when you have to go to the second hand. Lol

And that’s why I asked… Excellent point….I wasn’t even thinking double rifles….I was thinking about a bolt gun. But even that has no consensus when you have 3+ one or 4+ one.

 

[Hunter4752001]

Double rifle shooters were who I was alluding to. Maybe a double rifle emoji would help.

I’m picking up what you’re laying down now
