Last Pair for Christmas

[MarkB]

Here is the last ordered pair for Christmas and look I have one day to spare. It was looking to close for comfort but we made it. These are the last of three that where made for brothers . We tried to make them close to the same but a little different. On these I used the same stamps I had used on the first two pairs and I like the pattern. They were stamped with Berry King stamps and Panhandle Leather was use for the main bodies and HO for the tooled pieces. Thank all for looking and have a Merry Christmas

Great work Mark! Beautiful craftsmanship Tell me, how did you make that channel around the initials. It look REALLY deep in the fotos. Is that a stitch groover (can't be , the leather is too smooth in the bottom) and it looks too narrow to have beveled each side.

hoh DID you do it?

I cut that with a swivel knife then worked with a modeling spoon, nothing fancy or special.

Thanks for the kind words.

Nice job Mark!

One day to spare?? Your doing it wrong, they should still be wet when they open them. (Or maybe I'm doing it wrong)
