Don't let my wife see it or she will want one too. Very nice indeed.

Very nicely done. I enjoy working with the Sully. It’s beautiful leather, and your design and workmanship are spot on.

Very nice indeed! Got any interior pics?

A lovely design, well executed!

Sully is pretty damn awesome. Easy to skive as well. An angel to work with.

I wrapped the rivet with leather and use its bulk to hold it at the belt.

Will probably use a hidden snap button or hook in the future.

wow! Covering that rivet is so much work and it is looking beautiful! I have not worked with sully at all but like to give it a try some day. Does it burnish at all or did you turn all the edges?

It’s pretty easy to wrap. Just skive a round piece of Sully 1-1.25 oz, over cut a little, and wrap the rivet up like a dumpling. Don’t skive too thin or else it’ll tear easy. There are some easier ways to do it but I don’t make that many that efficiency has become a concern.

It does not burnish well from my experience.
