I just finished this for a friend of mine. Veg-tan hand tooled and black pro dye, for the outside. the inside is lined with black pig suede, and the interior is black Winston calf skin. (All hand stitch - saddle stitch)

 

Criticism is welcomed, I have no one to really judge my work! :) I have thick skin so no feelings hurt here:rockon:

That's a great looking wallet!  Stamping looks very good.  The only comment I have is that the edges look like they could have been sanded/finished a bit more.  Nice work!

Don't feel lonesome!  Edge finishing is often a frustrating effort for me too!

Looks very good and nicely stitched. i also agree with you, leather is looking thick. i would investigate skiving the edges.

well done Darkgoku.

Good job! Nice looking wallet.Try sanding the edges with 800-1000 grit wet/dry sandpaper before burnishing? You can buy it at auto paint store or possibly auto parts store.

Stamping and interior look good, I agree with others the edge is a tad thick. Skive the layers down a bit and you’ll have it perfected.
