KWP Report post Posted May 15, 2011 Hello from Denver City Tx. 12 miles from the New Mexico border. I am new to Leatherworker.net, but I am not new to leatherwork. I have been working with leather off and on for about 30 years. I have been building law enforcement gear off and on for the last 20 years. I don't get to work with it near as much as I want, but it seems I am making more time these days. I joined this site because I see many of you that have the same passion for this trade as I do and I want to learn from you. Who knows, I might have a different idea or two myself that might work for you. I have already picked up some great ideas. Thanks! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

King's X Report post Posted May 16, 2011 That looks really good! We can always use more practice. I have been off the block for a few weeks and now that I am getting back to the granite, I am finding that I better get some practice in myself. Happy Carving!

The swivel knife is my enemy when it comes to decorative cuts. I am using a tandy swivel with a ceramic blade. I am learning quickly that there are much better knives out there. Of course even the best knife is of no use if you don't practice!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
