These are super cool dude. I love seeing this kind of leather work in here, it's super inspiring. Thanks for sharing!
 
If you want some honest feed back:
Your leather work looks well made, looks good and you seem to use high quality leather.
But how you end your stitching is under par IMHO. Melting the ends and pressing it on the leather doesn't fit the quality of the rest.

If you ride a Harley you don't fit cheap tires under it either.

Not to talk you down, I mean it as a friendly honest opinion.

What is the last set of tires you bought? They have gone out of sight. I run Dunlop’s but my friends all run cheap Korean tires. I just try to get in where I fit in. Respect.

Regarding the stitching termination when I went to Yoakum Texas to buy my Campbell Lockstitch Machine in 2004 they put me with an old saddle maker and he showed me how to backstitch four stitches with a blunt needle and then burn the thread. I have been doing it the same way for nearly 20 years. I feed a family of four and they eat a lot. I can’t have stitching coming loose. Some folks like it and some folks don’t. My wallets are guaranteed for life and they have a lot of stress that a knife sheath or belt will not see. Sometimes it has to be function over form and when I backstitch and then burn it, well it’s game over. I use huge thread and sometimes we hide the termination in the leather with glue, sometimes I tie a knot and hide it inside a liner and sometimes I back stitch and burn it. I wish you guys could visit my Instagram and see what we are really about. It’s real hard to share true insight here because of the difficulty uploading photos and video. I am blessed to live in America where the demand for my work exceeds the supply. Much Respect
