zuludog...I will try that...see if I can clean it up to read it...just got these lots today and still going thru them. I was able to make out USA on it though.

OK...in the lot the knives and edgers were in was two books...Lucky Seven and General Leathercraft (school book). Both of these are from 1955 (which I think is awesome). If I would have looked, the Lucky Seven book (by Tandy (original printing)), it showed the second knife and the edgers.

By looking at your picture I think you're right.

Hmm...wasn't sure and didn't have a clue.

Ok...here I go again...found a few more. I bought a few leather tool lots from ebay and they arrived today. Most of the items are what I knew I was getting and paid for. There are a few items I am questioning though. All in all it was well worth the money though. This time I'm using my tablet since I'm in the shed...lol. A. I think is a piece of junk. B&C. I.m not sure but I think it might be a gouger. C. Just showing this off...a few were in a lot and thought they will look good on a purse.

Thank you TomG...I kind of thought I had seen one awhile back but my memory ain't that good.

On the first knife...I had to use a magnifying glass but there are words (I think I made out osbourne) but couldn't read them...it is pretty worn. The blade does screw on. On that beveler...I am going to have to look for the set...I hate tooling just to have the extra marks. To me it is ok for some things but others it looks tacky. cgleathercraft...it is number 197 All the craftool's that were in the lot are vintage by comparing to the chart I have. It shows the old tools with the numbers and the new equivalents and they're numbers (407 veiner compared to V407 veiner).

TomG thank you...I didn't even think about that since it was in with leather tools. King's X...I tried looking up carvers tools to learn some more about the company. I couldn't find a site for them. Do you have a link for them?

All in all it was well worth the money though. I am going to have to do this in four posts to get them all. J&K. These connect together to make a long plastic rod with picture K being at the end.

These appear to be stamps but they are made of plastic.

I have no clue. C. This is a numbered Crafttool beveler but the tool head is different then the one on the tool list I have. D. Not sure but these appear to be a type of screwdrivers.

I will take some more pics at different angles. The edge spacing is because I messes up on the back and had to cut it down. Good idea about the strap...I didn't think of that.

I order almost as much from SLC as I buy at the Tandy store (lol). They can also make 3D stamps pretty reasonable. I used to shop there when they were the Leather Factory. The only thing I have ever had a problem with is their "grab bags". Granted they are about $5 but you might get lucky to get something useful.

Just finished this.

I have posted plans on this site to make one. As Tugadude said about the rotation, on those plans it showed at the base making the upright actually connected solid and taking a base below them with a bolt all the way thru so it can rotate. I will post those plans here and maybe you can use some of the ideas. I built me one and I love it. Leather Stitching pony english.rtf

Looks great. I made one (from a kit) but this looks allot better.

I do when it is something I am selling. I thought about putting a finish on this case but I wanted to get one together to make sure I could do it. Just need to adjust the measurements.

My big thing was the belt slots. Might not be able to tell in the pictures but they ain't good. I have to get me an oval punch. Thank you for the feedback.

Here's a cigarettecase I made out of my scrap box. Everything, including the waxed thread and lace, are scraps. I need to increase the size though. It only fits king size and not 100's.

Here is a pancake knife case I thru together. It's a little rough.

Here is a wallet I made from scrap leather. Got the pattern from a kit I did awhile back. I sometimes buy one kit and make a pattern off it.

Beautiful

I know what you mean. I have an ID wallet I am working on from scratch and using leather not in a kit is a big difference. I have people wanting that style of wallet though and wanting them quick.

This is a wallet I finished yesterday. I hate using dye...ain't to good at it. But I think the rest came out good. Give me some critique please. These pics are from the carved product thru the finished product. I did use a template for the eagles but the background box and the flag are mine. The picture that came with the template had these so I drew them onto the wallet.
