    (KNIVES) Let's see some sharp pointy objects

    A friend of mine, Per Thoresen, has written a couple of articles about barrel knives in English on his (Norwegian) knife blog: http://kniver.blogspot.no/search/label/Barrel%20knives and http://kniver.blogspot.no/search/label/Barrel%20knives%202 More pictures in these articles (in Norwegian)...

    One man's system: machine washing and conditioning vintage jackets

    I treated a goatskin peacoat basically the same way, except for the tumbling. I let my jacket dry lying flat while using a heap of towels to dry it out. Got rid of the molding and bad smell, and had the extra benefit of being able to stretch the arms a good inch for better fit.

    Horween USA and Aero Leather Joint Statement

    My modified 1950's half belt ordered and delivered (January 2012) in seal goat is labelled as " ... manufactured from horsehide using the original 1920's tanning process." It also has a label saying that the lining is made from Highlander Wool from Lochcorran, while in reality the lining...

    Falcon Park Hattery

    Kept the centre crease. Partly because it looks good, partly because experimenting with creases takes a lot of steaming with this stiff felt.

    Falcon Park Hattery

    My Dark cherry FP hat: As promised, a couple of pictures of my dark cherry from Parker: 5 3/4"open crown, 2 3/4" brim. The centre dent dry creasing is just preliminary, not sure if I will pinch it. The felt is rather heavy and stiff, more like a western felt, and I love it. Good for a...

    Briefcase strap repair

    Hi Benzadmiral, You can save 1 of each item to the shopping cart at LeatherSmithDesigns, but as you have found there is a lot of suppliers out there :)

    Briefcase strap repair

    Terminology is the key :) For example here they got both swivel snaps and D-rings on the same page: http://www.leathersmithdesigns.com/swivels-snaps-rivets-rings.htm Good luck

    Not exactly what you are looking for, but perhaps these could work for you? The price is not too bad: http://www.readingglasses.com/waldo/?variantid=42662

    Are heavy jackets bad for the back?

    I own an Aero Half belt in FQHH which I really love; the quality of the workmanship and materials. I also have a neck and shoulder injury from a traffic accident a few years ago, which I hate :mad: . The two do not go well together. That's why I now am working on replacing my FQHH jacket with a...
