HELLO BLADEGRINDER!! 1979!! I Moved in with my Future wife in 1979 and have been in the same house ever since even thought My Wife passed away 20 years ago this past April!! I have been in and out of working with leather since I started in the early 70's and I wonder how good of a Leather Crafter I would have made if I had kept up with it!! In 2006 two years after my Wife passed away I was fortunate enough to come out of my Twilight Zone to attend the IFoLG"s 2006 Leather Show that was cosponsored by the iilg and held in Butler Pa it was an AMAZING SHOW!! It was an Amazing experience and I met so Many Amazing Leather Artist!! Saddly so many of them have since passed away!! Where in Fl are you?? Take Care!! Bill

HELLO!! KENNER!!! Ken I would first want to say to you that I am VERY SORRY!! that it looks like No One replied to your post back in January!!! I have been away from pounding leather for a Very Long Time!! The reason I am messaging you now is that Way back after my Wife passed away suddenly April 30th 2004 in my depressed state of mind I wasted a LOT!! of money on ebay buying Leathercraft tools and in order to get the one or two tools that I needed I had to buy sets so I have a Lot of extra tools that I need to sort through!! Unfortunately to get the tools I had to bid high so I over paid for a lot of them!!!! I know I will never recover the money I wasted but I would like to get a fair price as many of the tools were made in the early days of Tandy and some are actually Stainless! Some are pre letter prefix but all are steel not Zink!!! I am now in the process of trying to go through everything and trying to organize both my tools and my work area!! Do you have any idea of what tools you are looking for just let me know!! Take Care Bill

THANK YOU!!

Hello Everyone, A very long time ago after my Wife passed away I spent a lot of money buying leather tools!! One of the tools I was trying to acquire was a set of the Boy Scouts Woods Badges and I actually found someone that had two complete sets for sale and I bought both of them!! Unfortunately I fell back into a deep state of depression and a long time passed before I opened the packaged only to find out that both sets were missing the Eagle Stamp!! So now I am looking for at least one Eagle to complete one set!! Does anyone have or know of someone that has an Eagle at a Reasonable Price!! Your help Will be Greatly Appreciated!! Thanks!!

HAPPY NEW YEAR KEN!! and to everyone else as well!! I have been surfing ebay for a long time (1999) and i have seen leather tools sell for a wide range of prices.. Because of today's economy they don't bring as much as they did say 5-7 years ago however the really good tools like Krebs, Randall, Landis and so on still bring top dollar but ebay is an odd forum.. I have seen the Landis 30 listed with a starting bid of $400.00 and no one bids on it then one is listed a week later and a bidding war starts on the used dirty machine and it sold for $1,250.00 this was about a year ago. On average they sell on ebay for anywhere between $600 to $950 but this is for a used machine that may or may not work correctly when you receive it and will most likely at the very least have to have the blade sharpened.. If you were to call any of the major companies that sell used machinery to buy a rebuilt machine it could run you up to $1,950.00.. Your original price for the rebuilt Landis 30 was VERY Fair!! Now a couple of questions?? How much time on average does it take you to redo a machine.. How much would you charge to refurbish one for someone else?? And finally how about making a youtube video on how to use and adjust the machine along with how to properly sharpen the blade and installing it in the splitter Have a Very Safe, Happy & Prosperous New Year!! Bill Miles

Hi Kevin, Photos of what you are selling would help a lot??? Thanks.... Bill

STUPID ME !!!!... And i did read that and it must have gone right over my head D-ogh!!! Thanks for the heads up!!..... Bill

Hi.. I know that you have sold these but i have a question that i hope you can answer?? I see you have listed a Y after the tool number on some of the tools and i have never seen any stamps with any letter after the tool number except for some tools that had an S after the # to denote that they were saddle tools.. These tools were made heavier than the standard tools by the same number for example a P223 then there was a P 223 S both the same tool but the 223 S had a heavier/thicker handle... Thanks.... Bill

Hello Larry, Thanks for asking.. I have 2 of the 3 Baron Harley Davidson stamps one is the #1 H-D Logo stamp #857 and the other one is the Harley Davidson Wings stamp #856.. I will try to take some photo to send you.. I thought i had an extra Baron #209 pot leaf but i don't see it right now and will have to look some more... I have attached 2 auction of H-D stamps that sold on ebay in October 2011 and there are some listed on ebay right now here are the auction numbers, 251097077942, 261056097143 If you want to try any bid on the ones on ebay i can wait however from the attention they are getting after being on for just over 24hours i believe they will go high?? The ones that ended last October were the highest i have seen them go for in awhile.. Thanks for asking.... Bill

Hello Larry, Someone sent me a PM asking about these but they never answered my replies?? Trying to answer that persons question let me here and i see you had sent me a reply in May which i missed and i apologize for not getting back to you sooner!! Yes i still have 2 of the 3 and i believe i also have an extra of the #209 also!! Before you ask me what i am asking for them i want you and whoever else is interested that there is a seller on ebay that has listed Sunday all 3 of the H-D Stamps plus the Marijuana 209 stamp... The sellers ID is proleathercarver... Thanks for asking..... Bill Miles

Hello Dink, I hope you have found these by now but i see you have received some recent attention and interest so i just want to say if you or anyone is looking for these please let me know as i have extras of the alphabet sets and many other tools also... Take Care....... Bill

Hello Everyone.... Awhile back i posted that i had some Barontool Co. Harley Davidson stamps that i was going to sell on ebay!! The reason i am posting this now is someone sent me a PM asking if i still had them and i sent them 3 replies but have yet to receive any reply back?? Anyway i have 2 extra Baron H-D stamps that i will be listing soon.. I have list below 2 of the replies i sent so you will see what i sent them so be sure to scroll all the way down... Before anyone send me messages stating i am asking too much i will say that anything is only worth what someone is willing to pay no matter how much you think it is worth or want.. That being said i have seen these stamps sell as low as $35-45 and as high as $245.00 it just depends if the buyers willing to pay are looking when you are selling?? Actually if / when i list these i may set the buy it now higher?? If anyone wants them make me an offer I also have a Craftool Co. pre letter 886 Masonic Logo i will be selling also... Thanks for reading my post Take Care.....

The one is the #1 Logo tool number 857 and the other one is the Wings i have attached a photo of this stamp so you can see which one it is as there are 2 different Winged HD stamps.. If i list these i would be listing them each with a starting bid of $55.00 and a buy it now of $85.00 In better times i have started these at $85.00 with the buy it now at $125.00 and i have see a fellow iilg member pay $245.00 for one on ebay.. If i haven't scared you off make an offer... Thanks for asking!! Bill Miles Second reply Check out the two auction i have listed the numbers for below plus look at the two photos i have attached...
