This flask holster was the first time i tried wet molding leather. it was also the first time i tried to hand stitch and also the first time i tried slicking the edges. first time I held a swivel knife as well.
had a bunch of difficulties with this project. molding the bottom corners proved impossible, maybe because I didn't soak the leather long enough; I learned to use the edger and the slicker but I didn't use anything to effectively seal down the fibers, the edges were round but still kind 'a rough. I didn't case the leather properly and the swivel knife wasn't sharp so even a simple line drawing proved really difficult to carve.
all in all, another functional project but not the end product was not really what I had in mind.
