AlexOstacchini Report post Posted January 13, 2020 (edited) Hi all This is a leather Swiss army knife belt pouch, made to replace my old faithful victorinox one bought around 10 years ago. The case has been wet formed directly around the knife, hand stitched, and tooled with a little bit of western acanthus stuff. The main reason the old one failed was because of the velcro flap, so this one has a press stud instead, which I think is better. The back piece has a veg tan liner, I always tend to do this and it is as much to hide any horrible dye blotches as it is to make a nicer product... Not the greatest stitching in the world on this one, the main offenders being the horrible spacing around the bottom corners, but as this was for me and not a customer i'm not too fussed about that. Also please ignore the business card, this is not an advert, but these are the photos I have. I hope you like it, Cheers Alex Edited January 13, 2020 by AlexOstacchini Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
