New carving on old saddle?

Recommended Posts

Hi! Has anyone tried to carve on an old saddle? I have a client wanting me to carve his grandfathers brand into his old saddle. Will this work? The leather is in decent condition.

I have done this many times in my 50+ years of saddle work and the answer is, most of the time but proceed cautiously. Location will matter. If you can find a clean spot (blank in old pattern) odds increase. At any rate, clean spot well before casing to tool. Buena suerte
