Members byJohn Posted October 19, 2021 Members Report Posted October 19, 2021 Hi folks, I am dipping my toes into leather work and hope to learn from you all. I've admired leather products for a long time and my interest in working with it started with a desire to make a few knife and axe sheaths. Now I'm interested in other stuff, too, lol. I bought a starter kit and some leather and figure to get started this weekend. Looking forward to learning! John Quote
