JNewkirkct Report post Posted July 11, 2017 Hi guys and gals, I'm from Ct, I've been a career firefighter for 15 years and am retiring tomorrow due to repeated surgeries on my shoulder. I've been toiling with leather for approximately 2 years, I got interested in leather craft after buying knives with crappy sheaths and uncomfortable holsters. I rely mostly on YouTube videos and books for tips and tricks, my interests are sheaths, holsters, wallets, and fire department items (suspenders, radio holsters, and tool pouches). If anyone is in the new haven Ct area I'd love to hear from you, and possibly learn a few things from the seasoned veterans. Thanks! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
