Troy I Posted June 8, 2015 Report Posted June 8, 2015 The samples arrived today...very nice thread...sure beats the waxed nylon from Springfield. Thank you. Troy Quote
Members billybopp Posted June 9, 2015 Members Report Posted June 9, 2015 Thread arrived today. It looks quite nice, the colors are really vibrant, and I can't wait to try it out. Thank you!! Bill Quote
Matt T Posted June 9, 2015 Author Report Posted June 9, 2015 I've received a number of comments asking for a smaller size, and after comparing the size to Tiger Ritza, I'm thinking the size I have is closer to 1.0 or even 1.2 mm. For those of you who've tried it, what size would you say it is? Quote
Members mickthedig Posted June 9, 2015 Members Report Posted June 9, 2015 Received mine today, the thread looks a bit thicker than my 0.8 tiger thread so poss 1mm. Thanks Quote
Members terrypen Posted June 9, 2015 Members Report Posted June 9, 2015 Received mine today, now I need to do another wallet to test it out! Thanks Matt, Terry Quote
Members 25b Posted June 9, 2015 Members Report Posted June 9, 2015 I received mine today too...looks like very good quality. I will compare it to a couple of known sizes I have and see how it compares. Will see how it stitches soon too. Thanks again! Quote
Troy I Posted June 9, 2015 Report Posted June 9, 2015 To me the thread seamed to be on the thin side...but the only threads that I have to compare it to are the waxed nylon thread from Springfield Leather, and #277 bonded nylon and #277 bonded polyester both from Cowboy Bob that I use with my CB4500. The thread sample does sew really nice, but for my taste it looks a little thin on my holsters and slings. Quote
Members 25b Posted June 9, 2015 Members Report Posted June 9, 2015 I make smaller items (watchbands, small cases, wallets, etc.) and this size will be perfect for those items. Quote
ChriJ Posted June 10, 2015 Report Posted June 10, 2015 Matt. received mine yesterday. Envelope was beat to Hell but thread was fine. Ill compare to the Tiger 1.0 when I get home today. Thanks for the gift of the thread! Still wish you could get the Tiger thread though Chris Quote
Members LeatherRod Posted June 11, 2015 Members Report Posted June 11, 2015 I want to make an order..... How do I go about that? Quote
Matt T Posted June 12, 2015 Author Report Posted June 12, 2015 Hi LeatherRod, I'm happy to hear that you like the thread. You can purchase from my online store at www.lekoza.com If you have any problems let me know through the contact page, or through a private message on this forum. Thanks. I want to make an order..... How do I go about that? Quote
Members doe Posted June 12, 2015 Members Report Posted June 12, 2015 I just got the sample I ordered from the Lekoza site. Looks like good stuff and I really appreciate the color swatches as a reference for future orders. This is definitely wider than the 0.8mm Tiger thread. Just eyeballing it it looks like it could be half again as wide as the Tiger thread, so that'd make it 1.2. Quote
Members camano ridge Posted June 12, 2015 Members Report Posted June 12, 2015 Matt, got my sample today, just a couple days after I requested it. That was quick. Thread looks great. Quote
Members rlkey Posted June 13, 2015 Members Report Posted June 13, 2015 Matt, thanks for resending the thread sample. Received today, with the envelope intact, and the thread is impressive. A bit larger than what I usually prefer but I am very interested if you begin stocking a smaller 0.6 thread. Thanks again! Quote
Contributing Member 24VOLTS Posted June 15, 2015 Contributing Member Report Posted June 15, 2015 Thank you for sending the sample pack. I received the sample pack Saturday. My envelope survived!! This thread looks good. It is thinner then Ritza 25 1mm. It is not as heavily waxed and not as thick. Seems to be good thread. I will give it a try and see how it looks. Thank you, Phill Quote
Members nrk Posted August 13, 2015 Members Report Posted August 13, 2015 MattI've received the package.In two words - thread is very pleasant to work with! keep that quality and go on with different thicknesses ! ))few photos below Quote
