Members LumpenDoodle2 Posted January 25, 2017 Members Report Posted January 25, 2017 Sadly (and obviously completely unfounded), a female leathercrafter is not seen by some as capable of producing anything other than twee frippery . This erroneous attitude, and preconception, can lead to websites being skipped over, unviewed by the buyer. Their loss (IMHO). Quote “Equality? Political correctness gone mad, I tell you, gone mad!!!! Next they'll be wanting the vote!!!!! “. Anger and intolerance are the enemy of correct understanding

This erroneous attitude, and preconception, can lead to websites being skipped over, unviewed by the buyer. Their loss (IMHO). Have you ever seen the movie A Knight's Tale? Heath Ledger is a commoner pretending to be a Noble to compete in Tournaments. His armor is damaged, and since they don't have any money, can't find an Armorer to fix it. He has gone through almost all of them, until only a female Armorer is left. As he approaches her she has seen him going from tent to tent, and says "I don't do work for free... if you don't have the coin, I won't do the work." He says "That is just as well, they all said I was daft to even consider you." She bristles up, "Did they say I couldn't do the work because I'm a woman?" "No, they didn't say it was because you were a woman, it's because your work is shite." And of course, she takes the work to prove them wrong One of my favorite movies, because you get to see Geoffry Chaucer get thumped repeatedly. I still remember having to read Canterbury Tales in British Lit. Quote

If you want to avoid the possible negative slant of crooked K and such, but still want the western feel in a name, how about "Rockin' K" ... with a traditional brand style K with a curved line under it ...

Members Constabulary Posted January 25, 2017 Members Report Posted January 25, 2017 (edited) a few "brain farts" - J&K Hoffman Leather - - J&K Hoffman Custom Leather - - JayKait Leather - - JayKait Hoffman Leather - - JayKait Custom Leather - maybe a hissing California Spangled (cat breed) as logo (combines California an Kaitlyn ... kind of... ) - male leather line called "JAY" - female leather line called "KAIT" - unisex leather line JayKait For me crooked sounds like something unfinished, irregular or cheating or cheapish - personally I do not like it but thats just me.

It's a strip of leather. How hard could it be? 4 years and 3 grand later.... I have a belt I can finally live with. Stitching is like gravy, it's only great if you make it every day. From Texas but in Bossier City, Louisiana.
