That was in my mind too, when I craft it A moment I build leather armor for my self, so in future I have something else to show you.
Yes, basic saddle stitch :), most durable for my opinion. Blade was bought, this blacksmith is very talented, sadly from russia, so I not able buy any more his blades.
