Card wallet used for six years

I thought I share some photos I took after cleaning a wallet I made six years ago, and have have been daily used. Edge paint is not touched up, but thread is replaced from linen to synthetic (Meisi Xiange twist) 

Used:

Thank you. Not sure if you asked about the exterior or interior leather. Interior leather is Alran Sully. Exterior leather was a sample piece from a Spanish reseller, unfortunately I can't find it now. But if it's something you really like, then let me know and I can ask another crafter who might remember since he bought from the same place years ago.

Thanks. I appreciate it. I've been looking at some of the Alran Sully for wallets. 

Does it have a firm hand/temper? 

Thanks. That Sully leather sure patinas nice.

I would guess medium temper. Firm enough to make wallet interiors with single layers (not fully lined) very suitable for slimmer wallets because of the strength of goat leather.

I agree, I like it more every time I see this wallet.
