This was a custom order but I've really been trying to improve my tri-folds and bi-folds lately .  I prefer to round my corners on bi-fold's to avoid the hard stop on the stitching lines but to me it just doesn't work well with the tri-folds.  Made from Horween Dublin horse fronts and was my first project with my new #7 KS-blade punch chisels.  Having a set of inverse chisel made adding the pocket to the back of the wallet a breeze.

Edges still need a little work, I have trouble getting enough friction without rolling over the thinner leather.

That came out pretty nice!  Is the back section two layers?  Or is the leather finished on both front and back?

Thank you!  The back is a single later with a 2nd layer that comes down 1/2" - 5/8" just low enough that you can't see it stops from the front.  It was requested by the customer but I really like how it adds structure to back of the wallet.

A better view

That is a fine looking wallet. I would be proud to make one that nice.

And the leather is gorgeous.
