My Friend hooked me up!

I needed a couple of holsters for my salumi bone needles. My friend offered to make them for me. I knew he did leather work, but WOW! He has talent and skill!

I'm blown away! So awesome! Good day today!

Man that's some sweet leather work. Wish I'd seen this two weeks ago. I'd have talked to him about doing a custom holster for a new pistil I got and had a heck of a time finding a holster for it. Finally did though so I'm good....but a custom leather one would have been great

My friend has been making leatherworks for years...never sold any of his stuff. Just recently, when Covid hit, he started making stuff custom to sell. He is not full time, this is a hobby for him; and he is very good at it. I had no idea how good!

Beautiful work!! Congrats on getting them!!

Thanks tbern! I was blown away when I opened the package today!

I know....right!!!! Thanks Gray!

Outstanding!
How many pounds of your awesome charcuterie in the trade?

I used to do a lot of leatherwork.
Without seeing the back side my guess is those are hand sewn

Well....he insisted on not accepting payment. I told him I'm sending him a bunch of stuff...4-5" piece of everything salami I have on hand...

Do you know the best way to remove odor from leather? Something on it smells fruity...like maybe an oil treatment of something. And since this will hold a needle used to sample the aroma from salumi, I need the leather to be neutral.....any ideas?

 

[pineywoods]

Nice he does some very good work

 

[Fueling Around]

Fruity is a new one to me.
Mineral oil is about the most neutral to me. Neats foot oil leaves a distinctive aroma to me that is subtle
Smell had always been individual perception even before this covid interference.
How do you know what you cannot smell? Think about it! I do not smell roses. Figured that out 40 years ago.
