Leather Belt Puch
I modeled this after an antique leather purse I had.
I took almost a full day of work to craft it, but I am pleased. I use it mostly to hold my small tools and fire kit.

Re: Leather Belt Puch
Nice! Very, very nice! What sort of leather did you use? I've been wanting to make something like this with a shoulder strap for general carry at events, the ren faire, etc.

It is veg tanned horsehide buttstrap. 6 oz thickness I believe. Treated with neatsfoot oil.

Re: Leather Belt Puch
Nice! Is it dyed or stained in any way? The coloration sort of looks like a latigo or some other oil-tan.

Re: Leather Belt Puch
No stain or dye. The color just comes from the neatsfoot oil.
